Start your day around 8 am to beat the crowds and enjoy the quiet ambiance... The morning light does wonders for photos too!

I think it’s best to wear comfy shoes since the village has some lovely but uneven pathways. I ended up with sore feet from my sandals!

I think the best time to go is either early in the morning, around 9 AM, or later in the afternoon, around 4 PM. You'll miss the crowds and get way better photos!

I recommend checking out the local food stalls around lunch time; the tteokbokki and kimbap are delish and way cheaper than eating in sit-down restaurants. Really hit the spot for me!

I think you should bring some snacks and water with you. There’s not a lot of food options once you’re in the village, and I ended up spending way too much at the one café. A little prep can save you cash!
