[GLOBAL ECONOMIC TIMES]  The 16th Gangneung Coffee Festival will be held in the Gangneung Coffee Street (Anmok) area from October 24th to 27th under the theme “Coffee meets the sea again.” 

Gangneung City and the Gangneung Cultural Foundation changed the festival location to Gangneung Coffee Street to promote a festival that harmonizes with the sea in the birthplace of the coffee festival, breaking away from the method of holding it in the form of an exhibition.

Traffic congestion and parking difficulties near the festival site were expected, so the Coffee Street section from the Anmok intersection intersection was operated as one-way and a temporary parking lot was created.

By increasing the number of temporary circulation routes,

In particular, the three routes were named ① Cappuccino, ② Americano, and ③ Espresso to match the characteristics of the coffee festival, adding to the fun of using public transportation for visitors.
