YongPyong Resort is a five-star ski and snowboard resort, boasting powdery slopes, great services and diverse courses ranging in difficulty, from extreme sports for professionals, to slides fit for those who never wore a pair of skis before. It also is famous for its scenery and being the filming location of a famous Korean romance movie. And if you’re someone who doesn’t like to ski, but wants to wait and chill in a cafeteria instead, they have many small restaurants, shops, and cafes right next to the slopes. It’s all-season, so It’s a great way to spend any vacation!
