Suncheon Culture Street 순천문화의거리

Suncheon · Old Downtown, Drama Set & New Town · Sights

Typical visit 1 hr 10 min · Under ₩10,000 per person · Walking: Moderate

A car-free pedestrian street in the old downtown, lined with clothes shops, snack bars, karaoke rooms and cafes. This is where local teenagers and families hang out, so it shows you everyday Suncheon rather than a sightseeing spot. The street gets lively once signs light up in the evening, and street food such as tteokbokki, fried snacks and ice cream is cheap and easy to try.

Few shops have English signs, but pointing and smiling usually works. It is not a place for quiet contemplation, and some stretches look tired in daylight. Plan for an hour of browsing, and use it as a way to pass time between the market and a late dinner.

Best time to visit

Evening into night, particularly on weekends.

Pair it with

Great for
