Why go

Anbandegi Village is a mountainside village located at an elevation of 1,100 meters. The village name is a combination of the words "anban," which refers to the large and oval wooden platform used when pounding rice cakes, and "degi," which means flat land. Most of the village lands are covered with cabbage farms formed along the mountain slope. The steep slopes make it impossible to use farm machinery, which means all the cabbages farms are the result of manual work by the villagers. Official location: 428 Anbandegi-gil, Wangsan-myeon, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do. Information contact: +82-33-640-5125. Plan this visit using the official information above as the baseline.
