Bongsan Culture Street is a landmark culture & arts place in Daegu. The street, which stretches all the way from Daegu Hakwon to Bongsan Yukgeori (six-way intersection), has over 20 galleries of various sizes.

It was 1991 when the small alley with several art galleries started to turn into a breeding ground for culture and the arts. Soon after, the street was officially designated ‘Bongsan Culture Street’ and subsequently, the roads were neatly paved, artistic street lamps were installed, and streetside gardens were created. With the opening of Bongsan Culture Center and Cultural House for Teens, the street became increasingly frequently by citizens, not just professional artists.

At Bongsan Culture Street, artwork os on display throughout the year and every October (when the Bongsan Art Festival is held) the whole street is filled with artistic passion.

Daegu Medicinal Herb Wholesale Market, also known as Daegu Yangnyeongsi, is a major herbal medicine market specializing in the practices of Oriental medicine. The market dates all the way back to the Joseon dynasty, when the governor of Gyeongsang-do at that time supplied the best medicinal herbs to the central administrative office and sold the rest to the commoners. Among the many cities that served as suppliers of herbal medicine, Daegu survived as the longest and remained the most active. Until 1910, Daegu was at the center of the herbal medicine world, providing Oriental medicine to travelers from all around the world including Japan, China, Russia, Manchuria and many other countries. Even to this day, Daegu Yangnyeongsi continues to supply herbal medicine across the country and preserve the traditional medicine culture that has been passed down for over 350 years.
