Suwon Hwaseong Cultural Festival 2026
Cultural · Friday, October 9, 2026 at 12:00 AM · Hwaseong Fortress, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do

History comes alive at the UNESCO-listed Hwaseong Fortress in Suwon. The highlight is King Jeongjo's Royal Parade — thousands of participants in Joseon-era costumes reenact the king's grand procession along the fortress walls. Experience royal court cuisine at King Jeongjo's Dasobangwa, explore fortress-building workshops, and enjoy spectacular night tours of the illuminated fortress. Suwon is about 30 minutes from Seoul by subway or KTX, making this an easy day trip.
