715 Saejae-ro, Mungyeong-eup, Mungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do
This stop fits naturally as you move south from the omija park. It works well for a balanced visit combining exhibits and open-air spaces tied to Mungyeong’s mining heritage.
114 Wangneung-gil, Gaeun-eup, Mungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do
Have lunch here around noon in the market’s kalguksu alley. It suits a low-budget friends’ trip well, with simple noodle and snack-style options.
After lunch, spend the afternoon walking through the market lanes lined with side-dish shops, snack stalls, and dried seafood vendors. It is livelier on the 2nd and 7th market days, but the central market arcade is still enjoyable on regular days.
1-7 Jungangsijang-gil, Sangju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do
