-Attractions-

▲ Seoraksan National Park
Boasting breathtaking natural scenery and breathtaking views, Seoraksan National Park is not only South Korea's first UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, but is also registered on the IUCN Green List. Seoraksan is divided into Naeseorak, Nameseorak, and Oeseorak. Oeseorak is home to Daecheongbong, South Korea's third highest peak (1,708 meters). Besides being a popular hiking route, the summit offers breathtaking views of both sunrise and sunset.

▲ Ojukheon

Tour the entire Ojukheon grounds, accompanied by the rustling of bamboo. Reflect the profound virtues fostered by Shin Saimdang in his seven children, and the lifelong passion for scholarship of Yulgok Yi I. Shin Saimdang, featured on the 50,000 won banknote, and Yulgok Yi I, on the 5,000 won banknote, are the birthplace of the world's first mother-son banknote pair. Their profound influence on Korea is not to be missed. (★We recommend wearing traditional hanbok and touring Ojukheon to appreciate this simple, traditional architecture from a different perspective. ※Optional activity.)

The pine and cedar forest trail at Woljeongsa Temple on Mount Odaesan is approximately one kilometer long. Over 1,700 towering pine trees line the forest. This trail is a signature attraction of the thousand-year-old temple, and its relaxing phytoncide aroma is always beautiful. The pine and pine forest trail at Woljeongsa Temple on Mount Odaesan is also famous for being a filming location for the drama "Goblin." The scene where Goblin (Gong Yoo plays Goblin's mother, Kim Go-eun) confesses their feelings to each other amidst a snowy pine forest was filmed here.
