Wanju O’s Gallery and Dubhe Cafe, South Korea

Jul 17, 2021 | Coffee Shop, Book Store, Internal Spaces and Etc, Garden, Neighborhood, South Korea - West

The beautiful O’s Gallery is set beside reservoir water away from the busy city. The Dubhe Cafe is equally set beautifully among old Hanok houses in a mountain not far away from the gallery.

O’s Gallery: 24 Odo-gil, Soyang-myeon, Wanju-gun, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea
Dubhe Cafe: 371 Daeheung-ri, Soyang-myeon, Wanju-gun, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea

The best way to get there from Jeonju Hanok Village is having own car.  It would take about 30 minutes.  A taxi would be expensive, and the bus goes there once every four hours.  When a car is unavailable, take a bus to near the gallery, where many buses are available, then take a taxi to the gallery.  Do the reverse to come back.  Get a phone number to call a taxi for the coming back.

The O’s Gallery

The white building is the gallery, and the brick building is a coffee shop.

The coffee and the food cost about double that of Starbuck coffee.

A short walk from the gallery is a small Hanok Village.  This village looks authentic from the other Hanok villages I have seen because it is in the midst of a mountain forest.

In the midst of Hanok houses, is the Dubhe coffee shop.
