Chodang Dubu Village (초당두부마을)

89-8 , Chodangsundubu-gil, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do

Overview

Just south of Gyeongpo Beach is Chodang Dubu Village, which is famous for dubu (tofu). Chodang dubu is made from ground beans and salt water from the East Sea resulting in a soft and light tofu. The name of this village, Chodang, originates from the name of a famous family that once lived here known as Chodang Heoyeop. Heoyeop was the father of son, writer/poet Heo Gyun (1569~1618) and daughter, poet Heonan-seolheon (1563~1589). A traditional-style Korean house has been reconstructed on the site where the original house of Heo Gyun and Heonan Seolheon once stood.
