Asanman Embankment was created by blocking the stream that flows into the Asanman Bay in the West Sea. Although it was originally created to expand the farmlands of the region, Asanman Embankment became a tourist site over time thanks to its beautiful scenery. The area has the Yellow Sea to the west and Asanho Lake to the east. The western side of the embankment has a wide tidal flat. Fishing and drives can be enjoyed in the area. Don’t miss the view of the sunset toward the sea. In addition, there is a park, observatory, and exhibition hall in the area.
