Joyang Bangjik, which means Joyang Textile in English, was the first rayon factory established with domestic funds in 1933 in Ganghwa, but were closed down as Ganghwa textiles declined over the years. The empty building was left in ruins until it became renovated as a huge cafe. A demolished wall became a wonderful art gallery and movie theater, a long workbench was turned into a coffee table, and the space where machines and people worked was filled with antiques found in China and Europe. A British door with a broken window, a round mirror from an old train in the Czech Republic, and a fish-shaped bun machine that struggled to turn itself over every winter are naturally arranged as if they were there originally, giving an impression of time throughout the cafe by utilizing the factory and building frame of more than 990 square meters. Currently, various drinks and cakes are offered.

Yongheunggung Palace is where King Cheoljong (r. 1849-1863) used to live before his ascension to throne. The chief of Ganghwa County, Jeong Gi-se, enlarged the original residence and named it Yongheunggung (meaning palace of the rising dragon) in the 4th year of King Cheoljong’s reign. Its architectural features include a paljak (traditional Korean half-hipped roof) and supporting columns rendered in Jusimpo style, the column brackets placed only on top of the columns. The palace was built in the tradition of dwelling houses such as the Yeongyeongdang and Nakseonjae houses in Changdeokgung Palace, so the palace buildings give off a simple and plain atmosphere. Within the precincts of the palace are a memorial stone and a monument house indicating that the palace used to be the old home of King Cheoljong.
