Iksan Tour Enjoyed at Ungpo Camping Site

Ungpo Camping Site, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Gomgaenaru along the Geumgang River, is loved by many camping enthusiasts. Let’s leave the campsite and go on a tour of Iksan. We take a look around the old fenced road of the quiet village of Hamra and the cathedral prison set site, the filming location of the movie. Dudong Church, built in 1929, is also a meaningful place to visit. Murals depicting the history of Seongdang Port and Hwangpo sailboats also evoke a faint sense of nostalgia.

Details

Iksan Seongdangpogu Village

Iksan Seongdangpogu Village is located to the west along the Geumgang River and is the place where Seongdangchang, which oversaw Segok from Goryeo to the late Joseon Dynasty, was located and was called Seongdangpo (Seongdangpo) or Seongpo (Seongpo). You can relax while learning about the murals that depict the history of the traditional port village, Hwangpo sailboats, and the ecology of the Geumgang River.\n

Dudong Church Old Main Hall

It was designated as Jeollabuk-do Cultural Heritage Material No. 179 on April 6, 2002. This building is a Hanok church with an ‘ㄱ’ shaped floor plan and a single eaves roof with a tin roof. It was first established in 1923 through the preaching of missionary Harrison, but it is said that the current 'L' shaped church was built around 1929. It is an early Protestant church building that reflects the social situation and architectural characteristics of the time. It is a very important building in understanding the process of spreading Christianity in Korea and for the Church Architecture Research Institute.\n

Ungpo Tourist Site Camping Site

Ungpo Tourist Site Camping Site is located in the lower reaches of the Geumgang River, and the sight of the sun sinking into the river combined with the flock of migratory birds creates a spectacular sight. When you look down on the Geumgang River from Deogyangjeong Pavilion above the campsite, it looks like a bear with its mouth open and drinking water, so it is called Gomgae. The campsite can accommodate a total of 75 people and is composed of an auto camping site and a general camping site to meet the diverse needs of travelers. The Ungpo Sunset Event is held every year on the last day of December, and it is also a place where you can experience various experiential events and make resolutions for the new year.\n

Sungnimsa Temple

There is a theory that Sungnimsa Temple was founded along with Master Jinpyo and Geumsansa Temple during the reign of King Gyeongdeok of Silla (742-764), but according to Iksanji, it is said to have been rebuilt by Zen master Haengyeo in Eulyu, the first year of King Chungmok of Goryeo (1345), and the annals and inscription tiles are currently kept, making it a representative temple in the Iksan region. \n

Hamra village old wall

Hamra Village's stone wall road is characterized by high walls even though the houses are not very large. Earthen and stone walls, which are made of compacted earth and stones, are the mainstay, but there are also various other types of walls, such as earthen walls, stone walls, and walls made of bricks. Some of the walls were built using a mix of red clay and straw with molds placed on both sides of the fence. It is a cultural heritage that contains the aesthetic sense of our people, created and added by the villagers themselves from generation to generation. \n
