Welcome to Gyeongju Soohojeong, a Hanok guesthouse that combines traditional charm with modern comforts. Nestled in front of the famous Gyeongju Daereungwon, our guesthouse offers a unique experience for tourists seeking an authentic taste of Korean culture.
Built in 2015, our traditional Hanok guesthouse showcases the beauty of Korean architecture. Constructed with natural materials such as pine tree, red clay, and straw, our Hanok provides a cool retreat in the summer and a cozy haven in the winter. As you approach our guesthouse, you’ll be greeted by the sight of Korean hornbeams, top trees, maple trees, and elm trees, all planted along the wall next to the entrance. In May, the climbing roses on the wall burst into bloom, creating a picturesque setting.
