Sokcho is located on the Southeast coast of the Korean peninsula. The natural environment is a perfect example of harmony between mountains, rivers and sea. Its geography includes a coastline with superb beaches and scenic cliffs, mountains which provide excellent hiking and extraordinary views, and hot springs scattered throughout the city. It is also the gateway to one of Koreas most beautiful national parks, Mount Soraksan National Park. Soraksan (Sorak mountain) is famous for its beauty of colored leaves. The mountain shows distinct four seasons beauty all around the year.

Sokcho is the biggest city near Seoraksan National Park and enjoys more tourism than most port cities. Fishing is still a major industry and Dongmyeong Port is worth a wander round with its sea views, fishing boats, seafood restaurants and lighthouse. Barbed wire lines every inch of shoreline. At night remember that lights in the water are to attract squid; lights on the beaches are to detect spies.
