Jagyuru Pavilion and Gwanpungheon Hall (자규루 및 관풍헌)

61 Jungang-ro, Yeongwol-eup, Yeongwol-gun, Gangwon-do

Gwanpungheon Hall was used as a magistrate’s office to handle local affairs during the Joseon Dynasty. The site consists of an annex and a 3x3 kan building (a traditional Korean structural unit). Currently, it serves as a mission center for the Bodeoksa Temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. About 50 meters away from the hall is Jagyuru Pavilion, where King Danjong (r. 1452–1455) stayed during his exile after losing the throne to King Sejo (r. 1455–1468). It is said that Danjong frequently visited this pavilion to write poetry known as jagyu poetry. In these works, he compared his own grief to the blood-spitting cries of the jagyu (oriental scops owl), a bird characterized by its painful and mournful call. The pavilion was originally built by County Magistrate Shin Kwon-geun in 1428 (the 10th year of King Sejong's reign) and was initially called Maejungnu. It was renamed after Danjong wrote his famous poems there. The buildings were eventually lost and forgotten until they were rediscovered and restored by Gangwon Provincial Governor Yun Sa-guk in 1791 (the 15th year of King Jeongjo's reign).

Salmi-myeon, Chungju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do

Sujupalbong Mountain is located in Hyangsan-ri, Salmi-myeon, Chungju in Chungcheongbuk-do. Though relatively low in elevation, the eight peaks are formed of sharp, rugged rock, giving them a striking and imposing appearance. The name “Sujupalbong,” meaning “eight peaks of suju,” comes from the view across the Dalcheon Stream from Palbong Village in Munju-ri. From that vantage point, the eight peaks appear to rise in a row from the riverbank to the summit. Seen from above, the scenery resembles a traditional East Asian landscape painting. Sheer rock formations such as Songgotbawi Rock, Jungbawi Rock, and Kalbawi Rock stand like blades along vertical cliffs, creating dramatic views.

Suanbo Hot Springs is believed to have flowed naturally since ancient times. Historical records show that it existed as early as the ninth year of King Hyeonjong of Goryeo, and the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty note that King Taejo visited the springs to treat a severe skin condition, highlighting its long history. Today, it is the only hot spring in Korea managed under a centralized system by the city of Chungju, with a strong focus on preserving its natural resources. The spring water, drawn from about 250 meters underground, is mildly alkaline and contains beneficial minerals such as calcium, sodium, fluoride, magnesium, and lithium. Foot baths using Suanbo’s mineral-rich water are known to promote circulation and metabolism, relax tense muscles, relieve fatigue and stress, and support restful sleep.
