About this place
Ganghwadaegyo Bridge is more than just a scenic drive featured in the hit K-drama 'Queen of Tears'; it's the grand gateway to Ganghwa Island, a treasure trove of Korean history. As you cross this iconic bridge, connecting Gimpo on the mainland to the island, you're treated to breathtaking panoramic views of the Ganghwa Strait's expansive mudflats and the shimmering sea. This journey symbolizes a transition from the modern mainland to an island often called a 'roofless museum.' The original bridge, now open to pedestrians and cyclists, runs parallel to the new one, offering a slower-paced experience. For the most magical views, plan your drive during sunrise or sunset when the sky and water are painted in spectacular colors. Be mindful of heavy traffic during weekends and holidays. Once across, a world of historical exploration awaits, from ancient dolmen sites to formidable fortresses, making the bridge the perfect start to your Ganghwa adventure.
