Snack-themed attractions are common in Korea, and this one is aimed at families who want an indoor activity near the mountain. Expect colorful displays, hands-on stations and small crafts that keep younger children busy for an hour or so. The shop sells packaged treats that make easy souvenirs.

It works especially well on a wet day when hiking is not an option, though weekends can get busy. Check the official website or ask your hotel for the current schedule, because activities, prices and opening hours can change. Adults traveling without children will probably find the other museums more interesting.

Getting there

Take a taxi or drive about 15 minutes from downtown Sokcho toward Seoraksan; there is parking on site. Navigation apps recognize the Korean name. (Show a driver: 과자의성)
