Goryeo to Joseon Dynasty Historical Experience
About
It is no exaggeration to call Ganghwado an island of history. During the Goryeo period, it served as the capital when the Mongol forces invaded, and was also a stronghold of the Sambyeolcho. In the Joseon era, the crown prince and his entourage took refuge there during the Byeongja Horan. The Oegyujanggak, which was plundered during the Byeongin Yangyo, was also located on Ganghwado. With so many landmark historical events embedded in its soil, Ganghwado is the perfect destination for a cultural heritage tour.
