With some great day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience all that Dong-Gu, 50 miles away, has to offer. Geumnam-ro Street should be high up on your list here. Gwangju Art Street and Chosun University Museum of Art are interesting attractions too. Don’t skip Seo-Gu either! Just 50 miles away, Yangdong Market, Gwangju World Cup Stadium and Guus Hiddink Stadium are must-sees here.
