Namhae German Village is a fairly unique area.
It is a tourist destination visited by many Koreans as you can see German buildings and German food that cannot be seen in Korea.
There are so many people visiting on weekends.
There is a parking lot, but it is not easy to park.
Namhae German Village
The German Village was built for Korean residents who returned from living in Germany. Many Korean lived in Germany where they earned foreign currency during the modernization of Korea in the 1960s. The area is now a unique tourism spot related to German culture. In 2001, the areas of Mulgeon-ri, Samdong-myeon, Namhae-gun, where the Windbreak Forest (Natural Monument No. 150) is located, underwent a development worth 3 billion won ($2 million USD) implemented by Namhae-gun and eventually formed a village spanning over 99,174 ㎡.
Korean residents in Germany directly imported materials from Germany to build German-style houses. Some villagers who make frequent visits to Germany operate their vacant house as a tourist guesthouse. Attractions nearby are the Windbreak Forest and the Mulmi Coastal Road, one of the most beautiful coastal drives in Korea.
From VisitKorea.or.kr
The roads are narrow and the sidewalks are narrow because the village was not created with the idea of tourist attractions in mind from the beginning.
It sounds great when it is quiet, but it is very complicated because there are many visitors on weekends and holidays.
You will have to consider traffic jams and parking competition and visit.
