Pocheon Valley

'At Honggaedong with its nine bends, a heaven has opened. This is the landscape kept for a hundred years. Having newly built a pavilion to rest my body, this is no worldly realm but a separate paradise.' The name of Pocheon Valley was born through the poem 〈Pocheon Gugok〉 by Eungwa Yi Won-jo, a representative scholar of the late Joseon Dynasty. It is famous as the place where he built a pavilion called Mangwigjeong beside the waterfall at the upper reaches of the valley and spent his later years. Mangwigjeong and Pocheon Valley are also one of the Seongju 10 Scenic Spots, a representative of Seongju tourism. In midsummer it is also well known as a summer resort where countless vacationers enjoy playing in the water in the valley near Mangwigjeong, and you can fully enjoy pristine nature with the verdant mountain scenery and waterfall as companions, just like the scholars of the Joseon Dynasty.
