The Kaesong Folk Hotel is a tourist hotel located in Kaesong, North Korea, which opened in 1989. Housed in 19 traditional hanok-style courtyard houses, many of which date to the Joseon dynasty and retain their original furnishings. [1] The complex has 50 rooms, a traditional restaurant [2] and a souvenir shop. The houses themselves are located on both sides of the stream that runs through Kaesong, [3] with some located at the foot of Mountain Janam.
The hotel's accommodations are all traditionally Korean; guests sleep on the floor on padded mats, and all houses are equipped with the traditional Ondol heating system. Power outages are common at the hotel. [4]
The buildings were constructed at the time of the Ri Dynasty. [2] [5]
개성 당일 육로 관광은...점심식사 장소는 민속여관이었다. 조선시대 한옥단지를 여관으로 개조, 1989년 개장한 민속여관에서는 개성 토속음식들을 놋그릇에 담아내오는 '13첩 반상'이 관광객들의 허기를 달랬다.
민속여관은 옛 한옥을 숙소와 식당으로 개조한 일종의 민속촌으로, 집들 사이로 실개천이 흐르는 마음 속 고향의 모습이다.
