Gomchwi, the representative spring herb cultivated in the cool regions of Gangwon-do, is the subject of the annual Gomchwi Festival held every May in pristine Yanggu, the largest production area. It is called Gomchwi because it is said to be the favorite herb of bears waking from hibernation deep in the mountains. The fresh and crisp aroma of Gomchwi stimulates the appetite on spring days and is known to be effective for relieving fatigue, anticancer effects, blood circulation, coughs, and asthma. At the Gomchwi Festival in clean Yanggu, nestled in a pristine natural environment, you can create cherished memories through the best taste and nutrition, as well as various performances, experiences, and events.
