I walked along the seaside boardwalk “Gungpyeong Nakcho-gil (Gungpyeong Sunset Road)”, which connects Gungpyeong Harbor and Gungpyeong Beach. Drawn by the forecast of clear skies that promised views far out to sea after a long while, I headed out in the hope of watching the sun sink beyond the horizon. I first arrived at Gungpyeong Harbor, where I looked for the yellow Gungpyeong Harbor North Breakwater Lighthouse.
|
Around dusk, I headed to Gungpyeong Nakjo-gil (Gungpyeong Sunset Road). As I stepped onto the boardwalk leading from the entrance of Gungpyeong Harbor, a photo spot marked by big lettering immediately caught my eye.
|
While walking along the boardwalk, I noticed a sign that said “Do not feed the seagulls.”
|
At the end of Gungpyeong Nakjo-gil, the sands of Gungpyeong Beach spread out before me.
|
The sunset cast a red glow over Gungpyeong Nakjo-gil.
|
The tide was low. On the right, a small path that had been underwater emerged. The shallow pools left behind are used as fishing spots for children.
|
Beyond the distant breakwater, the sky was filled with a beautiful sunset. The pavilion known as Gungpyeongnu, standing on top of the breakwater, was unfortunately under renovation, so I wasn’t able to go up.
|
The sunset over Gungpyeong Nakjo-gil was stunningly beautiful.
|
There was a photo spot marked “Sunset Viewing Spot” by the path.
|
After walking along Gungpyeong Nakjo-gil, I arrived at Gungpyeong Beach. I sat on a bench, hoping to watch the sun set beyond the horizon, but it slipped behind the clouds over the sea. Still, the glow of the sunset shimmering over the beach was beautiful.
|
After the sun had set, I walked back along the road leading to the entrance of Gungpyeong Harbor. LED lights lined the boardwalk, casting colorful light on the path as they shifted from one color to another.
|
I walked toward Gungpyeong Harbor, watching the LED lights along the way.
|
As the tide receded, twilight spread across the tidal flats, revealing a beautiful scene. I was moved by the beauty of that moment, so I captured it with my camera.
I couldn’t see the sun sink beyond the horizon, but the sunset I watched from Gungpyeong Nakjo-gil was still beautiful. Even after the sun had set, the glow of the LED lights and the twilight over the tidal flats gave the place a new charm. Gungpyeong Nakjo-gil was a place that brought small moments of peace to everyday life.
