Cheonhwang Restaurant photo

Cheonhwang Restaurant is a long-standing restaurant at an intersection inside Jinju Jungang Market, open since the Japanese colonial era and now run by its third generation. Housed in a roughly 100-pyeong (about 330 m²) wooden hanok lined with rows of earthenware jars, it still keeps the feel of a traditional local eatery.

The signature dishes are traditional Jinju bibimbap, served with three side dishes and seonjiguk (ox blood soup), and charcoal-grilled seokswoe bulgogi. Being close to Jinjuseong Fortress, it's a popular first stop for a meal at the start of a Jinju trip.

Useful tips

  • Traditional Jinju bibimbap comes with seonjiguk on the side, so it's worth enjoying the soup along with it.
  • Parking in front of the restaurant is difficult, so it's more convenient to use a dedicated outside parking lot.
  • Its proximity to Jinjuseong Fortress makes it easy to pair with sightseeing before or after a meal.
