    • Use Gyeongpo and Seongyojang as separate stops even though they are nearby; allow transfer and ticket-entry time.
    • Wear shoes suited to uneven thresholds and courtyards and ask staff for the currently accessible route when steps are a concern.
    • Keep voices low around residential and lodging areas, and do not enter rooms or courtyards marked private for a photograph.
    • Search “강릉 선교장” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the entrance before leaving.
    • Opening hours, admission and closure days can change; use the official regional guide before departure.
    • The catalogue pin is approximate. Use the linked Korean map search for the final walking route.
