The beautiful scenery of the two-story wooden pavilion standing elegantly among the East Coast sea and dense pine trees is spectacular.

You can see the sea from the pavilion, so if you go when there are no people around, you can get the perfect photo.If you see Cheongganjeong on your route, take a look around. Even free.

At the top of the hill there is a pavilion where you can see the surrounding area while feeling the wind, and at the bottom is the beach? There was a walking trail so the view was very good and I felt like walking was fun.It becomes mysterious as I look at the calm sea.

East Sea Coast bike paths on the ruins of the Joseon Dynasty. You can't enter because the building is being repaired right now. Instead, it takes a 100-meter walk around the base of the hill. There is a small beach and camping site at the end of the short but beautiful hill trail. Parking lot is convenient and free.
