Heyri Art Valley
헤이리 예술마을
An artists' village in a valley in Paju, with galleries, museums, and cafés housed in modern buildings of wildly varied design. It's often combined with the DMZ and Paju Premium Outlets.
Heyri Art Valley was built in the late 1990s, when about 380 artists, writers, and architects came together to create this cultural village in a Paju valley. Its modern buildings each have a distinct style and house galleries, small museums, bookshops, studios, and cafés. Korean dramas such as My Love from the Star were filmed here. Many venues charge separate admission, and most close on Mondays. Nearby are Paju Premium Outlets and Paju Book City, and you can combine a visit with a DMZ tour to Imjingak. Take bus 2200 from Hapjeong Station, about 50 minutes.
Opening hours
Approx. 10:00–18:00 (varies by venue; most closed Mondays)
