Yeoju Ogoknaru Festival (여주오곡나루축제)
The Yeoju Ogok Naroo Festival is a representative autumn festival held in Yeoju, historically known as the nation's largest granary. 'Ogok' refers to five grains: rice, barley, millet, sorghum, and beans, highlighting Yeoju's abundant agricultural produce. Held around the Sinreuksa Temple tourist area, the festival focuses on praying for a bountiful harvest and promoting the excellence of local agricultural products. During the festival, visitors can enjoy various programs such as tasting ogok-bap (five-grain rice), participating in direct farm produce markets, and experiencing traditional farming culture. A particularly memorable experience for many visitors is a boat ride on the Namhan River aboard a Hwangpo sailboat, offering scenic views of Yeoju's beautiful autumn landscape. Additionally, to promote Yeoju as a renowned pottery region, pottery exhibitions and sales are held concurrently, showcasing a multifaceted festival that blends culture and agriculture. The festival also contributes to revitalizing the local economy...
