Located near Suseongdang Shrine, the canola field spreads across an area of 32,000 ㎡, and transforms into a field of buckwheat flowers in summer, followed by cosmos flowers in fall, and becomes blanketed with snow in winter. This area is even more popular due to the scenery of canola flowers with an ocean backdrop as Jeju Island is the only other region in Korea to offer such scenery.

Dongho Beach is located south of Gomsoman Bay, between the Byeonsan Peninsula of Buan and Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do. Skirting the 1-kilometer-long white sandy beach lies a green forest with pine trees hundreds of years old. The sunset viewed from the forest is particularly eye-catching as the soft pink from the falling sun covers the sky. The water just offshore is relatively shallow, varying in depth between 0.5 and 1.5 meters. The high salt content in the seawater makes it an ideal place for sea and sand bathing.

On the hill above the forest is Suseongdang, a shrine honoring the god of the seas, where the local fishermen gather each year to pray for big catches.
