Yongpyong Resort

Pyeongchang is a county in the state of Gangwon, South Korea, located in the Taebaek Mountains region. It is home to several Buddhist temples, including Woljeongsa. It is about 180 km (110 mi) east southeast of Seoul, the capital of South Korea, and connected by expressways and high-speed passenger railways. Pyeongchang's slogan, "Happy 700 Pyeongchang", is taken from its average elevation of approximately 700 metres (2,300 ft).

Nestled in the Taebaek Mountains, Pyeongchang is a winter wonderland that’s perfect for skiing, snowboarding, and other outdoor activities. The area is also known for its hot springs, which are said to have healing properties. In fact, the hot springs of Pyeongchang are believed to have been used by the ancient Silla Dynasty to treat their warriors' wounds.

But Pyeongchang isn’t just a winter destination. In fact, the area is just as spectacular in the summer months. The lush greenery of the mountains provides the perfect backdrop for hiking, camping, and exploring the great outdoors. And if you’re looking for a more laid-back experience, there are plenty of cultural attractions to visit, such as the Pyeongchang Hyanggyo, a Confucian school that dates back to the Joseon Dynasty.
