1. Take a break from your busy life and relax slowly in Paju.
Escape the city and explore the local spaces of Paju, experiencing the local ingredients and rural landscapes. Instead of rushing around to several places, this is a trip to stay in one place and spend the day slowly.
Walk through unfamiliar neighborhoods, enjoy delicious food together, and feel the night air of Paju while listening to music around a campfire at night.
This trip is not about doing a lot. It's a time to slow down and experience the daily life of Paju up close.
2. Enjoy Paju's seasonal foods and makgeolli along with a campfire.
The first evening is not just a meal time but one of the important experiences of this trip.
Taste the barbecue prepared with Paju's seasonal ingredients along with makgeolli, and after the meal, enjoy the campfire and music.
You can chat with participants around the campfire or quietly watch the flames. The combination of the rural night sky and warm lights provides a sense of tranquility that is hard to find in the city.
Through a meal and a glass of makgeolli, you will naturally remember the seasons and atmosphere of Paju.
3. The next day, try brewing makgeolli that reflects your own taste.
After breakfast, move to the brewing space and think about the flavors of the makgeolli you like.
Decide on the direction you want, such as sweet, refreshing, or rich taste, then handle the ingredients directly and brew the makgeolli.
In the end, give a name to the makgeolli you made and leave a short story. The tangible results of your efforts will help the memories of your trip last longer.
The food and night of Paju, along with the makgeolli I brewed myself, come together to complete the story of a 1-night, 2-day trip.
Eat well, relax comfortably, and in the end, try brewing your own makgeolli.

It is not just a place to make alcohol, but also operates programs that connect local agricultural products, traditional liquor, accommodation, and local experiences, allowing visitors to stay in Paju and experience the local daily life.
We place great importance on connecting local products made by residents, village accommodations, and cultural content into one journey, ensuring that the experiences and consumption of visitors benefit the local community.

■ Location: Paju, Gyeonggi-do
Paju, where the project is taking place, is a city where you can experience the atmosphere of traditional liquor and rural life, as well as peace, art, and nature together. Exploring the representative places of Paju before and after the program can enrich a 1-night, 2-day trip.
1. Heyri Art Village | A cultural village where art and taste converge
It is Paju's representative cultural and artistic space, where galleries, museums, bookstores, small theaters, cafes, and workshops gather. It is enjoyable to slowly walk through the buildings and alleys, view exhibitions, and find spaces you like.
2. Imjingak Peace Park | A landscape of peace that can only be found in Paju
This is a representative place that well shows the history and locality of Paju. Walking through the spacious Pyeonghwa Nuri Park and the surrounding area of Imjingak allows you to reflect on the history of division and the meaning of peace. It is a place where you can encounter a different story of Paju compared to a nature and cafe-centered trip.
3. Majang Lake | Nature healing along the lake and forest
This is Paju's representative natural tourist attraction with a suspension bridge across the lake and a waterfront walking path. It's perfect for walking lightly or resting while looking at the lake and forest, making it a great fit for leisurely enjoying Paju's nature after completing the program.
This project will be conducted as a face-to-face program for one night and two days.
The entire project will accommodate a maximum of 12 participants. It will be conducted in a small group, allowing for shared meals and discussions in a comfortable setting.
