Yongchu Waterfall Valley

Yongchu Falls Valley in Ungchi-myeon, Boseong-gun is a valley located halfway up Illim Mountain in Boseong. At the entrance of Yongchu Falls Valley, there is Yongchu Village, Yongchuje Festival, and Yongchu Recreation Area, and if you go up Yongchu Falls Valley, you can see the source of the Boseong River. There are many legends about Yongchu Falls here. It is said that at Yongchu Falls Yongso, a dragon ascended to heaven in the past. Right next to the Yongso, there is a 10-pyeong fairy bath where fairies used to bathe, and a soap box next to it. There is also a legend that says that there is a dragon rock above Yongso, and that if childless women throw stones from the rock into the waterfall, they will have children. Illimsan Mountain, so named because it is a mountain where the forest is so deep that you cannot see the sun once you enter the forest, is great for forest bathing while walking through the dense cypress forest around Yongchu Falls, and is also famous as an azalea colony in the spring along with Jeamsan Mountain and Sajasan Mountain.
