The first day’s final stop on our Gangneung<\/a> & Donghae 3-day, 2-night trip, which took place from April 2nd to April 4th, 2022, was Haslla Art World, the most impressive place of this trip. It was filled with unique and diverse exhibitions and great photo zones utilizing common architectural materials, so we spent a lot of time taking pictures. The popularity was so great that my phone battery was almost depleted.<\/p>\n

Haslla Art World: A Complex Art Space<\/h2>\n

Named after ‘Haseulla,’ the old name of the Silla Dynasty’s Gangneung<\/a>, this place is a complex art space featuring a 33,000-pyeong sculpture park, a museum hotel with ocean views, and various art exhibitions. You can enjoy the beautiful East Sea from every space, and it’s a place full of romance.<\/p>\n

Haslla Art World offers special experiences and happiness through continuous artistic work, performances, exhibitions, and festivals by domestic and international artists throughout the year. The indoor art gallery houses the Gangneung<\/a> Museum of Modern Art, where you can see about 200 contemporary art pieces, and the ‘Pinocchio & Marionette Museum,’ displaying marionettes and Pinocchio works collected from Europe. Various exhibitions, including special exhibitions, invited exhibitions, and permanent exhibitions, are held, so it’s advisable to check the exhibition schedule before visiting.<\/p>\n

At the Gangneung<\/a> Museum of Modern Art, you can see various contemporary art pieces. In particular, the piano covered in spiderwebs was an amusing piece that made me imagine if Spider-Man wanted to steal the piano.<\/p>\n

Be careful to check the signs as the entrance is narrow. The Marionette Museum displays various marionette works. The Mona Lisa piece elicits laughter with the witty phrase, ‘Actually, I am a man.’ The artwork of a skull whose neck bobs up and down offers a chilling experience.<\/p>\n

Photo Zones<\/h4>\n

Haslla Art World offers various themed photo zones. In particular, the photo zone utilizing silver pipes to express them like reeds swaying in the wind was personally the most impressive. In the cave-themed photo zone, you can take commemorative photos in front of a bird’s nest-shaped sculpture.<\/p>\n

Rooftop View<\/h4>\n

From the rooftop, you can enjoy a beautiful landscape where the sea and mountains blend. The ‘Standing on the Sea’ photo zone has a blue floor that creates the illusion of standing on the sea. In the ‘Under the Blue Sky’ symmetry photo zone, you can create fun memories by taking photos alone or with others. The wide rooftop is made of thin pipes, giving a slightly shaky feeling.<\/p>\n

For those who love art and design, Haslla Art World was a gift of time. Various programs such as docent tours and children’s experiences are operated, so please refer to the website. Haslla Art World, the last destination on the first day of our Gangneung<\/a> trip, is a highly recommended place that I would suggest many people visit.<\/p>\n
