Additional points of interest in the Ganghwa Anglican church area include Goryeo palace site and Yongheunggung House. The site of the Goryeo palace was used as a refuge when Mongolia invaded during the Goryeo period. Yongheunggung House was the home of King Cheoljong (reigned 1849-1863) before he became king. The house was built in a similar design to Yeongyeongdang Hall and Nakseonjae hall, Changdeokgung palace.
