A huge bakery with river views for zoning out, Namyangju ‘Habaek’
‘Habaek Bukhangang Branch’ in Namyangju is absolutely massive, and that scale gives you lots of different vibes to explore. The place spans from the first to the third floor and features indoor seating, terraces and a skywalk on each level, a wide main deck, and a rooftop—honestly, you might need a map. Because it sits right next to the Bukhan River, it’s an ideal spot to zone out by the water. They serve coffee, bread, and light meals made with top-grade beans and premium flour.
