    DAY-OF PLAN

    Know the sequence before you go.

    Times from the operator are kept separate from Korea Era planning guidance.
    1. 01
      Choose one entrance and a daylight walking line

      The village spreads across steep residential lanes above Tongyeong Central Market. Save the published point and one downhill return rather than assuming a single level loop.

    2. 02
      Follow public lanes without treating homes as exhibits

      Keep voices low, leave doors, alleys and vehicle access clear, and do not enter a courtyard or photograph a resident at close range without permission.

    3. 03
      Return before steps become harder to read

      Murals, small shops and viewpoints change independently. Wet paving, stairs and fading light can make the descent slower than the climb.

    • Check the linked current record again on the travel day because hours, programmes and controlled areas can change.
