In the morning, the sound of birds and sunlight shine, and if you leave the doors open on both sides, you can feel the wind indoors. If you open the door and go out, there is a courtyard where you can look at the trees and relax. Most importantly, if you come during the season when the garden is abundant, you can grow vegetables yourself in the garden, and during the season when seasonal vegetables are available, we also provide ssamjang (seasoned soybean paste) made from our own vegetables. There is an Olle Trail that you can walk from the entrance of the house to the stream in 5 minutes, so you can enjoy walks and the stream from the house. It's not special, but when you need a break. When you want to spend a whole time with your loved ones, when you want to fill your body and mind with healthy food, stop by Yangpyeong House under the tree.
