What you’ll find

What Hwangnam-ppang (황남빵) is known for

Baked in Gyeongju since 1939, this shop presses thin dough around sweet red-bean paste to make hwangnam-ppang, the small floral-stamped pastry that travelers carry home by the boxful. The flagship sits at the Hwangnam-ppang crossroads near the Daereungwon royal tombs, still run by the founding family.
