Boseong is built around tea: the Daehan Dawon Tea Plantation and the fields around it are the largest and most famous on the peninsula.
Highlights
- Daehan Dawon Tea Plantation, rows of tea terraces climbing a hillside, with paths through them (₩3,000 admission).
- Green year-round, but especially worth visiting in autumn or winter to skip the spring/summer crowds.
- The Tea Plantation Light Festival, a winter light display across the hills.
Getting there
A direct bus runs from Seoul's Express Bus Terminal (Central City) to Boseong, taking about 5.5 hours. A quicker option is KTX to Gwangju or Suncheon, then a local bus or train onward — roughly 4 hours total.
Getting around
From Boseong's bus terminal or station, it's about 8 km to the tea fields — a local bus (every 30–60 minutes) or a 15-minute taxi ride.
