Yangnim History & Culture Village is located in the area where Western items and ideas first entered Jeonnam-Gwangju Special Metropolitan City over 100 years ago. As such, the neighborhood has a unique collection of Western architecture mixed with traditional hanok houses. There are also many houses of Christian missionaries, who facilitated the advancement of medicine and education in Jeonnam-Gwangju Special Metropolitan City. Some areas, such as Penguin Village, have been decorated with murals and outdoor exhibitions to promote art and tourism, helping the elderly locals to make a living.
