The Goheung Yuzu Festival is a yuzu-themed event that captures the scent and charm of Korea’s largest yuzu-producing region, welcoming visitors of all ages. Under the slogan “Scent of People! Yuzu Paradise!!,” the festival blends a yuzu-field healing garden and night vistas—offering hands-on activities and foodie fun by day, and a garden illuminated by lights by night. Selected as a Representative Festival of Jeollanam-do for 2024–2025, it has elevated its brand value, and the 5th festival unfolds in “Yuzatopia” Goheung from November 6 to 9.
Feel the allure of nature’s golden hue and time-crafted natural vitamin C with all your senses on-site. As you stroll along paths where the scent of yuzu lingers, you may find a moment of healing away from the everyday.
