Naganeupseong Folk Village | South Korea | Suncheon

Naganeupseong Folk Village is a Korean historic village located in Nagan-myeon, Suncheon, South Jeolla, South Korea. This well-preserved walled town served as an administrative core for the county during the Joseon Dynasty and it is designated as historical site N0. 302.

Naganeupseong is a former administrative town and consists of three neighborhoods located inside the fortress walls, on a level field surrounded by mountains. It has preserved traditional elements such as a fortress, government buildings, and a cluster of private houses. The hanok-style houses are distinguished from other historic villages because of their straw roofs, clay rooms, and Korean-style verandas. This difference is rooted in the fact that the town of Nagan was mainly inhabited by common people and not aristocrats.
Nowadays there are still around 100 households living in the village, many of them farmers that still carry out the traditional values and arts of the region.
