'오죽헌'은 조선시대의 대학자 율곡 이이와 관련하여 유명해진 강릉 지역의 대표적인 유적지이다. 오죽헌은 조선 초기의 건축물로, 건축사적인 면에서 중요성을 인정받아 1963년 보물 제165호로 지정됐다. 이 곳 몽룡실(夢龍室)에서 율곡 이이(李珥)가 태어났다고 한다. 경내에는 오죽헌을 비롯하여 문성사(文成祠), 사랑채, 어제각(御製閣), 율곡기념관, 강릉시립박물관 등이 있다.
Seongyojang is the most well-preserved and dignified nobleman’s house in the Gangwon-do region. Located about 4km from Gyeongpo in Gangneung-si, Seongyojang represents the residences of the upper class during the Joseon Dynasty and is designated as a National Folk Cultural Heritage site. When Gyeongpo Lake was larger, the village was called Baedari Village (船橋里) because people traveled by boat to cross over; the name Seongyojang originates from this. In 1703 during the reign of King Yeongjo of Joseon, Lee Naebeon, a descendant of Prince Hyoryeong, built the house on a site considered auspicious, which he discovered while chasing a weasel. His descendants still live there today. The total floor area is 1,051.24m² (318 pyeong), featuring a main house, annex, East Byeoldang, family shrine, and other buildings surrounded by long corridors, along with the Hwallaejeong pavilion built over a pond of several hundred pyeong in front of the gate, showing a perfect structure with a garden. Seongyojang is valuable not only for its buildings but also as a precious resource for studying residential life and household items in the late Joseon period, and the scenery blending with the surroundings is beautiful.

Gangneung Gyeongpodae is one of the representative scenic spots of Gangneung and is designated as National Treasure No. 2046. It is one of the Gwandong Eight Views reflecting the culture of the Goryeo period and is a pavilion located on the northern hill of Gyeongpo Lake. Built in the 13th year of King Chungsuk of Goryeo, it has detailed records of one relocation and several reconstructions, with especially detailed records even before its construction, allowing a concrete understanding of the changes over time. The name 'Gyeongpodae' features a signboard in the style of cursive script by Yuhanji and a regular script signboard by Lee Ikhoe. Inside Gyeongpodae are many writings of notable figures and poets, including King Sukjong's own 'Eoje-si', and 'Gyeongpodaebu' composed by Yulgok Yi I at age ten, as well as Cho Hamang's ridgepole inscription. Surrounding the pavilion are appropriately dense pine and sawtooth oak trees, creating an elegant landscape. The Gyeongpo Eight Views and Gyeongpo Wolsam are renowned as magnificent scenes of the world. Nearby attractions include Gyeongpo Lake with its old pine forest and cherry trees, and the coastal sand bar separating Gyeongpo Lake from the East Sea, which forms Gyeongpo Beach.
