Jangneung is the tomb of Wonjong, the biological father of the 16th Joseon king Injo (1623~1649), and his wife, Inheon Queen Gu. Jangneung is in the form of Ssangneung (paired tombs), with the burial mounds placed side by side in one enclosure. When facing the tomb from the front, the left (west) is Wonjong's tomb, and the right (east) is Inheon Queen's tomb. The scale and structure of the tomb appear to represent the typical style of mid-Joseon. Below the tomb is a ritual hall where memorial rites are performed; this building was used annually by the 21st king Yeongjo and the 22nd king Jeongjo to conduct ancestral rites. The area around the tomb is arranged like a park. (Source: Gimpo-si Culture and Tourism Homepage)

Founded in 1933 as Ganghwa's first rayon factory established with domestic capital, Joyang Textile fell into ruin as Ganghwa textiles declined over time. The dilapidated building was reborn as a large café. The crumbling walls became a stylish art gallery and cinema, the long workbenches were transformed into coffee tables, and the space once abandoned by machines and people was filled with antiques from China and Europe. British doors with broken glass, round mirrors from old Czech trains, and a carp-shaped pastry machine that struggled each winter are arranged naturally as if they had always been there. The 990㎡ (about 300 pyeong) factory site and building frame remain intact, preserving the stories of time throughout the café. A variety of beverages and cakes are currently sold.

Han River Central Park, created as part of the development of Gimpo Hangang New Town, connects the water-edge walking path called Geumbit Suro with the Laveniche shopping area, forming a wonderful trail. The Geumbit Suro Laveniche walking path extends 2.68 km, offering diverse scenery from the southern to the northern ends. Inspired by the city of Venice, Laveniche stretches 1.7 km along the waterfront with various shops. Centered on the Central Plaza main square, light strolls along the waterfront on both sides feature lifestyle goods, restaurants, and pubs, making it an ideal place to enjoy shopping and healing time.
