As one of Korea’s top four fields of reeds, Sinseong-ri Reed Field (nearly 60,000 pyeong) has also been popularized as a filming location of the mega-hit Korean movie, “JSA.”

To protect the natural environment, only 2-3% of the entire area of field of reed has been developed into a park. About 100,000 migratory birds (40 species) pass through every winter (especially in December and January). In fall, the golden fields of reeds create a romantic atmosphere along the banks of the glittering Geumgang River.

Nearby tourist attractions include a riverbank resort, Wolmyeong Park (in Gunsan), Chunjangdae Beach (in Seocheon-gun) and Hansan Ramie Fabric Museum.

* Period to see the golden fields: July to February

Bieung Port is the starting point of Saemangeum Embankment which is at the entrance of the Saemangeum tourist area. Bieung Port was once closed due to the excess of soil sedimentation after the construction of Geumgang Estuary seawall. In addition, when the shores were closed off with the Saemangeum Embankment reconstruction project, a new port was in need and thus Bieung Port was repaired and reopened along with two other ports. Bieung Port in particular was constructed as a multi-functioning fisheries port so that it may be incorporated with the nearby attractions in the tourism business.
