Changnyeongmun Gate, the eastern gate of Hwaseong Fortress, is similar in shape and size to Hwaseomun Gate to the east. Something to take note of is the nameplate carved into the wall left of the gate. While the names on the polished granite at the other three main gates have become obscure over time, the nameplate at Changnyeongmun Gate is still clearly visable.

A friendly alley with Kuk Yeonsoo’s house
Jidong Mural Village is a neighborhood with many winding alleys where Kuk Yeonsoo lived. Murals with seven themes are painted on the 6km-long road, so just walking along the pictures is as fun as a treasure hunt. As you walk, you will see a familiar green gate next to Jidong Supermarket, which is the house of Kuk Yeonsoo in the drama. As rainbow murals often appeared on the opposite side in the drama, there are many fans who take proof shots here.

Seolbongsan Mountain (설봉산, 394 m) dominates the western portion of Icheon City. It has also been called Bugaksan Mountain and Muhaksan Mountain since the mountain resembles a crane with its wings spread open. Although the mountain is not rugged and maintains a well kept walking trail, it has many intriguing rock formations. There are as many as eight natural springs from which clear water gushes, and there are also Buddhist temples and relics scattered across the mountain. There are other attractions to see and enjoy as well, such as Seolbong Park, which was established at the opening of the World Ceramic Exhibition, as well as the municipal museum.
