Located in the Haengjunae-dong and Haengjuoe-dong areas of Deogyang-gu, Goyang, this food village sits along the banks of the scenic Hangang River. Its prime location allows visitors to enjoy a variety of local dishes while overlooking the river and the historic Haengjusanseong Fortress. While the area primarily focused on grilled eel and spicy fish stews in the 1970s, it has since grown into a diverse culinary hub with dozens of restaurants. The grilled eel remains a national highlight, known for its high quality and the distinct flavor of being charcoal-grilled. On weekends, the village is a favorite stop for tourists visiting the fortress. Beyond its famous eel, the area is well known for its "noodle village," which serves affordable and hearty portions of janchi guksu (banquet noodles). Visitors can also enjoy other traditional favorites such as pajeon (green onion pancake) and dotorimuk (acorn jelly salad).
