Tongyeong Bugpolu and Dongpirang Mural Village, South Korea
Bugpolu is high on the mountain and gives an excellent view of Tongyeong city. Dongpirang Mural Village is on a hill near the Fish Market and has many coffee shops tailored for travelers.
Dongpirang Mural Village: 6-18 Dongpirang 1-gil, Dongho-dong, Tongyeong-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea
Bugpolu is way high on the mountain, and so it is a strenuous hike. The hike is steep, and you need to be careful not to get hurt. It took me about 40 minutes to reach the top. There could be a less strenuous way up the mountain, so it is recommended to do some research. I did not do the research and took the hiking route the taxi driver told me.
The destination has one structure for the hiker to take a rest.
It provides a broader view of Tongyeong city. This is a panoramic view from left to right.

After reaching the ground level, I kept walking to Dongpirang Mural Village
Dongpirang Village is a small hilly village where the walls are painted. It became popular with the tourists, so eventually, stores catered to the tourists were showed up.
