It is 150 meters long, which makes it the nation's longest bridge tower-less suspension bridge, and was constructed to form harmony with nature.
Gamaksan boasts small but beautiful valleys around Seolmacheon Stream as well as Ungyepokpo Falls where the waterfalls are nearly vertical so it is used for ice wall training in the wintertime.

Uijeongbu Budaejjigae Street (의정부 부대찌개거리)

The word “budaejjigae” has two parts: “budae”, or military unit, and “jjigae,” a dish made by boiling ingredients and stock in a pot. It originates from the post-Korean War period, where processed meat from US Army bases was made into a jjigae with vegetables, glass noodles, ramyeon, and the like. While the exact origin of the dish is difficult to establish, a strong tradition of sausage jjigae was established in Uijeongbu, thanks to its proximity to US Army bases. These geographical characteristics created today’s Uijeongbu Budaejjigae Street. Starting with Odeng Sikdang, the origin of the street, restaurants specializing in sausage jjigae entered the area, creating a specialized street and a landmark of Uijeongbu.

Unlike its name, meaning “fishcake restaurant,” Odeng Sikdang specializes in sausage jjigae. Its history can be traced back to the ‘60s, when the first-generation owner opened the restaurant. Now in the third generation, the restaurant remains in its old spot. The restaurant, in fact, began as a food stall selling fishcakes. Its sausage jjigae began as a stir-fried dish featuring ingredients obtained from the nearby US Army base (ham, sausage, bacon, etc.), which over time turned into a jjigae to be eaten with rice. Odeng Sikdang’s sausage jjigae is an exercise in harmony, where processed meat products are used in tandem with Korean-style broth, rice cakes, and noodles to create a flavorful stew. Because of its fame, it is often quite crowded, but prompt service and rapid turnover mean that one usually does not have to spend hours in a queue outside peak hours (weekday lunch and dinner, weekends). Note that the restaurant has an annex, where groups of 5 or more are directed towards.
