Sambuyeon Falls (삼부연폭포)

Sambuyeon Waterfall is a breathtaking natural wonder located in Cheorwon, South Korea. Renowned for its three-tiered cascade and stunning natural beauty, this waterfall has captivated visitors for centuries. Nestled amidst towering cliffs and surrounded by lush greenery, Sambuyeon Waterfall offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The waterfall’s unique name, “Sambuyeon,” which translates to “Three Cauldron Pools,” refers to the three distinct pools formed by the cascading water. These pools, along with the surrounding rock formations, were created over millions of years by the erosive forces of nature. The waterfall’s beauty is further enhanced by the surrounding forests, which provide a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

I was surprised to see a massive waterfall in an unexpected place. The surrounding cliffs are sharp and the sound is loud and overwhelming.

One of the best hidden tourist attractions along Hantan River. There is a parking spot with a restroom on the other side of the tunnel.

If you're in the area, it's worth stopping by for a couple minutes. Parking and bathrooms are just past the waterfall. Parking is limited though
