You left your plans at home, right? Then you're all set.

지도를 든 도꼬

Hi there!
I'm Dokko, your guide at Amudena.
I'm actually a burr seed, the kind that hitches a ride on passersby's clothes and travels.
This time, I'm sticking to you!

“Amudena” is Korean for “anywhere.” Wherever the wheel lands, that’s where you’re going.

What's Gyeongsan-si like?

안경 쓴 도꼬

I'll tell you just a little of what I know.

A city right east of Daegu, with lots of universities gathered together. There's a reason a street is called 'Daehak-ro' (University Street)!

Up north in Wachon-myeon is Palgongsan's Gatbawi; down south in Namsan-myeon are Bangokji and the Samseonghyeon History & Culture Museum.

Autumn is peak season. On the third weekend of October, the Jujube Festival and the UNICA Korea International Film Festival overlap!
