Mokpo combines a working port, views across island-studded waters and traces of Korea’s modern history. The Modern History Museum and old streets tell the city’s story since its port opened, while Yudalsan Mountain and the marine cable car reveal the city and surrounding islands from above. Sunset brings another mood to the waterfront. Local dishes such as hongeo samhap, fermented skate with pork and kimchi, and braised cutlassfish reflect Mokpo’s ties to the sea.
