[Jeollabuk-do] Gaeksa-gil (객사길)

Hello! Here is the detailed information for ‘Gaeksa-gil (객사길)’.

💡 Overview

Gaeksa, which was installed in every town during the Goryeo and Joseon periods, was a type of accommodation where foreign envoys or government officials from other regions stayed. Gaeksa can still be seen today in downtown Jeonju and there’s a “Gaeksa-gil Street”  at the main street of the old city center. The street features countless roadside shops and franchise restaurants so both Jeonju locals and tourists frequently visit the area. Also, Jeonju Gaeksa-gil is where the Jeonju International Film Festival is held every year. Considered as one of the three main Korean film festivals, the Jeonju International Film Festival primarily presents independent films and has discovered many hit movies and new actors. On one side of Gaeksa-gil, you can also find Jeonju Cine Complex and several movie theaters, which is why it is called the “Film Street.” In the back of the Film Street, restaurants, cafes and clothing shops attract movie fans to form so-called “Gaengnidan-gil.”
