Did you know the first overseas battle where the U.S. Marine Corps raised the American flag in Asia? It happened on a small island named “Ganghwa” in 1871. Just five years earlier, in 1866, French warships clashed with Korean forces here — marking Korea’s earliest confrontations with the West. Ganghwa became a frontline of modern history — where cultures collided and Korea’s isolation met global ambition. 🔭 Ganghwa Peace Observatory Just across the river lies North Korea. From here, you can glimpse real villages, farms, and everyday life — a rare, sobering view of the divided peninsula. 🧘 Jeondeungsa Temple With 1,600 years of history, this serene temple offers a peaceful pause after a powerful journey through diplomacy and conflict. Just an hour from Seoul or Incheon Airport, Ganghwa Island reveals Korea’s past, present, and place in the world — all in a single unforgettable day.
Pickup from your hotel or agreed point we’re heading to a Ganghwa Island. Our first stop is Gwangseongbo Fortress, the site of the 1871 battle between the U.S. Navy and Korean forces. This is where the U.S. Marine Corps raised its flag in Asia for the first time. Next, we’ll visit Chojijin, a smaller fortress but just as meaningful. It was bombarded by French forces in 1866, then again by the Americans five years later. * Lunch Break – Local Restaurant I’ll recommend the local food beloved in this region. Our final stop is a peaceful one — the Jeondeungsa Temple, over 1,600 years old. Walk through the temple grounds, admire the ancient wooden halls and stone pagodas, and listen to the sound of the temple bell if we’re lucky. It’s a beautiful way to end the day — with peace and reflection. Drop off at your hotel or agreed point
