The city is about 80 miles (125 kilometers) east of Seoul and about 60 miles south of the Demilitarized Zone separating North and South Korea. A train between Seoul and PyeongChang takes about 90 minutes.
Officials announced in 2011 that the city had beaten top bids from Munich, Germany, and Annecy, France.
"The Olympic spirit is about respect, dialogue and understanding," Bach added following the announcement in Lausanne.
"The Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018 are hopefully opening the door to a brighter future on the Korean peninsula, and inviting the world to join in a celebration of hope."
