With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it'd be much more difficult to explore all that Dong-Gu, 30 miles away, has to offer. See the best sights beginning with Geumnam-ro Street, Gwangju Art Street and Chosun University Museum of Art. Located 35 miles away, Seo-Gu is another popular tourist destination. If you visit, don't miss Yangdong Market, Gwangju World Cup Stadium and Guus Hiddink Stadium.
