Tongyeong City Tour

Tongyeong City Tour


Tongyeong is a beautiful port city located in the southern edge of the Korean Peninsula. The scenery made up of many islands spread out on the ocean and the buildings of varying heights located along the port often elicit a flattering comparison to the beautiful Italian port city of Naples. Perhaps because Tongyeong is so beautiful, the city has produced many historical and literary figures. Get to experience this city's beauty and learn about its history through the Tongyeong City Tour.
