Mokpo Marine Cable Car Gohado Station, Aerial tramway station in Mokpo-si, South Korea
The Mokpo Marine Cable Car Gohado Station is an aerial tramway station on the waterfront in Mokpo, South Korea, and one of three stops along the city's marine cable car line. It sits on the edge of Gohado Island, connecting it to the North Port station and the Yudalsan mountain station.
The Mokpo marine cable car system opened in the late 2010s as part of an effort to develop tourism in a port city with a long history tied to fishing and sea trade. The Gohado stop was included from the start, giving the island a direct link to the mainland for the first time by aerial route.
Many visitors use this station as a starting point to walk around Gohado Island, which sits just nearby. Along the waterfront, small stalls sell fresh seafood, giving a sense of everyday life in this port city.
The station is located on Gohado Island and is most easily reached by taking the cable car from the North Port station on the mainland. Arriving early in the day helps avoid longer waits, especially on weekends and holidays.
Some cabins on this line have glass floors, so you can look straight down at the sea moving below your feet while crossing the water. This makes the boat traffic passing underneath unusually visible and gives a sense of the port's constant activity.
