Daegu

Daegu is best known within South Korea for its long-standing textile industry. Set in a basin between Palgongsan to the north and the Apsan mountain area to the south, the city has a warmer, more continental character than Korea’s coastal centres. The Geumho River crosses the urban area before joining the Nakdong River west of the city. Daegu’s commercial identity is evident at Seomun Market, one of the country’s major traditional markets, while Daegu Yangnyeongsi reflects a long tradition of herbal-medicine trading. Museums, shopping streets and parks place this industrial and mercantile heritage in a large modern city. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Daegu.
