#Photo spot #100 travel styles You know you can't miss this place when you go to Pohang, right? A hand in the sea! Homigot There were a lot of people taking unique and fun pictures here, but I didn't know that, so I just took a picture and came back :) Seagulls are sitting and resting on the hand, and you wonder how it was made. Make sure to get some pretty pictures at Homigot~! **Location - Homigot Sunrise Square Daebori, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do

I have been wanting to make a pilgrimage for a long time🫣🫣🫣 A famous spot to watch the sunrise, especially during New Year's Eve! I heard it was the first one to rise. The road is left hand 🫲 The sea is the right hand 🫱 If you see seagulls on the five fingers of the sea It will bring good luck☺️☺️☺️ 📍Address: 10-20-2020 ❌It is not recommended to come at night The transportation here is inconvenient. If you don’t drive, you have to give up watching the sunrise 🌅. Also, if you don’t know Korean, I suggest you charter a car directly! 🚌On the way there👉I took bus 9000 from Gulongpu and got off at "대보중학교" and walked in 🚌On the way back👉, we walked to the entrance of the parking lot🅿️ and happened to meet a city minibus. The driver asked where we were going and then took us to a convenient transfer stop and then took another bus🚌. The driver was very enthusiastic and introduced the route along the way (there were few people on the bus and they were all tourists). It felt like I was on a sightseeing minibus🚎 This place is remote and it's hard for taxis to pass by... Fortunately I caught this one😏 #100TravelWays #NaturalLandscape #Pohang #KoreaTravel #KoreaTouristAttractions #PohangTourism #HandsofMusic #CapeHomiSun Plaza #PohangAttractions

The Hand of Symbiosis, Connecting the Land and the Sea Homigot is a place I've visited often, but every time I visit, I always think, "It's really cool." Children running around the wide sunrise plaza And tourists taking pictures in front of the Hand of Symbiosis They all look so comfortable and excited It feels healing just to look at them! Homigot is already so famous, but I still hope that those who haven't been will go at least once.🩵 - - 📍Homigot Sunrise Plaza 🧭Daebori, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongbuk #ExcitingSummerVacation #Homigot

For those planning a trip to Pohang, take note 🪄✨ Right next to the Homigot Sunrise Parking Lot There is a 1km long rapeseed flower field The endless rapeseed flowers are planted in terraces, so it's even prettier 😚 If you go to Homigot after the rapeseed flowers, you'll be happy✔️ 🚗 Homigot Sunrise Square parking lot is free #Spring flowers

Homigot Sunrise Square, located in Pohang, Gyeongsangbuk-do, is a great place for a family outing. You can walk while looking at the ocean right in front of you, so it is a popular tourist destination. It is also known as a place famous for sunrise among photographers. The sunrise on Sangsaeng's hand is known as an exotic landscape that looks like a ring, and it is known as a work of art. Personally, I think the sunset is also beautiful when you don't have time. Sangsaeng's hand in the purple sky gives another feeling and presents an emotional landscape. 🚗 Dedicated parking lot available 🔍 Daebori, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do # Places to go with kids

I always thought that I could only see rapeseed flowers in Jeju, but the entire huge field was filled with beautiful rapeseed flowers, so wherever I looked, there were rapeseed flowers everywhere ✨ When I visited, it was the rapeseed flower festival season, so there were a lot of things to do, so it was great, and the rapeseed flowers were in full bloom, so I think I'll be able to see the yellow waves until early April! I fell in love with Pohang like Seoul, because I could see the blue sea from the plaza 5 minutes away from the rapeseed flower field, 💘 . . 📍Homigot Sunrise Square Dabori, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do #Domestic travel #Hot place #Pohang #Pohang travel #Pohang rapeseed flowers #Homigot ##Homigot Sunrise Square

📍 Daebori, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongbuk Homigot is one of the places that comes to mind when you think of Pohang! It's already a very famous place, so I think many people have been there. I only saw that hand in photos and videos on the internet, but this was my first time seeing it in person, and it was much bigger and more beautiful than I thought. Homigot is also famous for its sunrise, so many people come to take pictures! Even though I visited during the day, there were many tourists. I think there will be a lot of people coming to see the sunrise on New Year's Day, January 1st! The clear and transparent sea of ​​Pohang, the seagulls flying around to get shrimp chips, and the sound of the rough waves made my heart feel refreshed. There are many photo zones and a coastal path nearby, so I recommend this tourist attraction to visit if you go to Pohang👍 #PohangTravel #SoloTravel #YearEndTravel #WinterSea #Homigot #DomesticTravelRecommendations

📍Homigot Sunrise Square (Daebori, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongbuk) I live in Daegu, and when I want to see the ocean, I often go to Pohang! That's why I've seen Homigot so often, but it's still nice to see again and again🌊 I like it alone and with others💙 The signature finger sculptures of Homigot! They say that if you see a bird sitting on each of your five fingers, something good will happen🍀 Did you know that you can rent a bicycle for free at Homigot? You can sit and look at the ocean, take a walk, and then ride a bicycle at Sunrise Square☺️ You can rent a single-person or double-person bicycle just by leaving your ID card. There are also many photo zones (sculptures), so if you go to Pohang, I recommend it as a must-visit place👍🏻 #PohangTravel #Homigot #Sea #Healing #Bicycle #SoloTravel #FriendshipTravel #TouristAttraction

Located at 136 Haemaji-ro, Daebo-ri, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Homigot Sunrise Square is a coastal park famous nationwide for its iconic 'Hands of Harmony' sculpture. While it is better known as a sunrise spot, I visited this time to enjoy the ocean view at sunset. At dusk, the sky and sea blend together in fiery red tones, creating a scene reminiscent of a movie. The moment when the sculpture's shadow stretches long and merges into the sea was truly unforgettable. Walking along the coastal trail, I also enjoyed exploring the lighthouse museum and commemorative sculptures on display. The tranquil atmosphere brought a sense of calm to my mind. The square is equipped with basic amenities like showers and free parking. Sitting comfortably by the sea to watch the sunset and then strolling under the moonlight was an incredible experience. If you want to end your day with a breathtaking view where the sea meets the sky, I highly recommend the Homigot sunset. 📌 Address: 136 Haemaji-ro, Daebo-ri, Homigot-myeon, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do
