Discover Kangwon Land Casino — Korea's Legendary Mountain Gaming Resort High in the mountains of Gangwon Province, at an elevation of 1,345 metres , stands Korea's most unique and legendary casino: Kangwon Land Casino (강원랜드 카지노). This is the only casino in Korea open to Korean citizens — but it also warmly welcomes international visitors, and for foreign tourists, Kangwon Land offers something no other Korean casino can: a combined mountain resort, ski destination, and gaming experience at a truly epic scale. With 27,291 sqm of gaming floor — Korea's largest casino overall — 200 tables and 1,360 slot machines , Kangwon Land operates on a scale that dwarfs every other venue in the country. The resort complex includes the High1 Grand Hotel (674 rooms), High1 Ski Resort (18 slopes), an 18-hole championship golf course, and spectacular natural surroundings that change dramatically with every season. Operated by Kangwon Land Inc. , a government-owned corporation established to revitalise the former coal mining region, this is a casino with a story, a purpose, and an experience that rewards the journey to reach it. For international visitors, Kangwon Land recently opened a dedicated foreigner-only zone on the 5th floor (February 2025), providing an exclusive gaming environment with no monthly visit restrictions.
