Alongside a scenic road in Jeonju city of Korea, there is an authentic hanok stay that has been quietly nestled there with over 60 years of history. This stay is known as Goyu, which means "getting free from the worries and enjoying time.” The hanok built in 1956 portrays the blessings of the sky and the warmth of the ground, and its unique features provide convenience while maintaining the original building features and the traditional curves. Goyu is a unique space where you can feel modernity while still respecting traditional architecture.

The place creates a convenient atmosphere for a great staycation with an indoor and outdoor swimming area and a living room overlooking the kitchen. In the bedroom, a circular window allows the gaze to remain fixed on the sky at all times. Goyu also features a hydroponics area in the yard. The hydroponics area in the yard is a landscape that can only be found in Goyu, while the water creates a mirror that illuminates the sky. On a clear day, clouds float over the water, and on a rainy day, the wavelength of the water spreading over the surface of the water is spectacular. The stories of nature shared in the yard breathe life into the soul who has been deprived of vitality due to busy city life.

Spending time in Goyu stimulates the five senses. It is located near Nambu Market, so you will be able to experience the essence of Jeonju. While swimming in the swimming pool, you can enjoy the scenery beyond the window. What if you wrapped yourself in the warmth of tea and listened to the sound of pine needles rustling in the wind? Goyu is a perfect place to relax, empty your mind, and create a space for it to be recharged again.
