[edit] Get around

Gangneung is small. You do not need a car or even a motorcycle. It's unlikely that any trip would involve more than a one-hour walk.

Streets in Gangneung have names and signs.

The public bus system is good. It is essential that you be able to read a little Korean AND know the names of local parks, buildings, etc. to be able to read the destinations on the bus. Sometimes one bus number will have two routes; be careful, particularly if boarding near the bus terminal. Fare is a flat 980 won for city routes.

Flagfall for a taxi is 1800 won. You want to be able to speak a little Korean.

If you're at all energetic, a second hand bicycle at 50,000 won isn't a bad idea (weather permitting).
