+82-61-272-2171

Mokpo Skywalk offers an unobstructed view of Mokpo’s sea. Under the concept “observatory over the sea,” this platform over the sea offers a 360-degree view of Mokpo’s sea. There are sections with glass flooring and sections with steel flooring, which adds to the thrill and allows one to enjoy the views from all sides. Mokpodaegyo Bridge stands on the eastern side of the skywalk for an even better view. The busiest time here is when the sun starts to set. The view of the sunset is especially beautiful thanks to the smaller islets scattered across the ocean. There are also plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby, so it’s a great place eat out after watching the sunset.
