Jeonpo Cafe Street became more famous after being selected in The New York Times’ 52 World Destinations of the Year in 2017. Connected to the street, Jeonpogonggu-gil Street is lined with alleys of different colors. The deserts and coffees of the shops filling the narrow alleys are as diverse as their colorful buildings.

The attraction of Jeonpo Café Street is that each hidden big and small alleys are creating a different world.

The colorful signboards that you will see whenever you enter an ordinary alley make it difficult to decide what to eat.

If you go up along Jeonpo Cafe street, there’s a big road that is across the entrance of Jeollidangil Street. Although only a path separates the two areas, the atmosphere is different. If Jeonpo Café Street feels like a shopping zone, Jeonpogonggu-gil Street is more like a “coffee street.” Old hardware store buildings stand side by side with cafés with unique interior designs. The mixed sounds from fixing a machine and grinding coffee arouse a unique feeling as if it’s linking the present and the past.

As you walk along the main street, you can see Busanjin Fire Station. After the fire station, there lie four identical alleys. In the narrow alleys standing side by side, there are many different types of shops, including cafés, restaurants, clothing stores, dessert shops, small shops, nail shops, vintage shops, and photo studios.
