Soyangho Makguksu Street

Makguksu refers to thick noodles made from coarse buckwheat flour with only the outer husk removed. In the past, buckwheat noodles were served to special guests in the Chuncheon area, but after the Korean War, people began making and selling noodles to overcome economic hardship, leading to their popularization. The area around Soyangho Lake in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province, is especially famous for Makguksu Street. Popular restaurants that even local Chuncheon residents visit are gathered here, bustling with customers on weekdays as well as weekends. Buckwheat makguksu can be enjoyed in kimchi or dongchimi broth, or mixed with vegetables and seasonings, and served with vinegar, mustard, and broth. It also goes well with other Gangwon Province traditional foods like buckwheat pancakes or buckwheat crepes. Near Soyangho Makguksu Street, there are attractions such as Jungdo Tourist Site, where you can enjoy the ambiance of Uiamho Lake, and the Animation Museum, Korea's first animation-themed museum, making it a great area to explore together.
