Saseondae Tourist Resort was established around Saseondae located on the bank of Owoncheon Stream in the upper region of Seomjingang River. The name Saseondae originates from a legend of four immortals and fairies. The legend has it that two immortals of Maisan Mountain in Jinan and two immortals of Unsusan Mountain in Imsil gathered by Owoncheon Stream to enjoy the beautiful nature. Looking down at the immortals were four fairies, who fascinated by the picturesque scenery of the region, came down from the sky to join the hermits. Since then, the place has been called Saseondae and the stream Owoncheon. Unique rock formations, woods and clear water surrounding Saseondae create a magnificent harmony. The Unseojeong Pavilion (Regional Tangible Cultural Asset No. 135) situated in the dense forest of Saseondae also adds beauty to the scenery. Furthermore, visitors to Saseondae may also enjoy the handcrafted works of noted sculptors from the nearby art village in Ogung on display at Saseondae Sculpture Park.

The Jeong Jae-su Memorial for Filial Piety was constructed to honor the bravery of Jeong Jae-su who died at the age of 10 trying to rescue his father. It was opened on June 12, 2001 at the former Sasan Elementary School where Jeong was a student. In the Jeong Jae-su Exhibition Room on the first floor, materials relating to Jeong’s filial piety are on display. In the Filial Piety Exhibition Room on the second floor, various materials on general filial piety and works created by students are on display. The theater shows movies on filial piety, including one about Jeong’s virtuous deeds. The theater is also used for seminars and conferences on filial piety. There is also an outdoor performance stage, a facility for traditional folk games, and a rest area.

Simni (10-ri) Cherry Blossom Road in Hwagae is famous for its beautiful views in spring. It is believed that if a young couple walks down this road holding hands, they will be together for one hundred years. For this reason, the road is sometimes referred to as the “wedding road.”

Hyosajeong Pavilion is where Nohan, the second Vice Premier of the Joseon Dynasty during King Sejong and King Sejo’s reign, stayed. After he lost his mother, he built the pavilion to mourn at her grave while still being able to see his father’s grave in Gaeseong to the North. His brother-in-law, then Minister of the Interior, Gang Sa-deok named the pavilion “Hyosajeong,” which means pavilion of filial piety. In order to find the original location of the pavilion, poems by Jeong Inji and Seo Geojeong and an old map of Korea “Sin-jeung-dong-gunk-nyeo-ji-seung-nam” were referenced, but the pavillion was not found because the surrounding landscapes had changed much. As a result, a location was selected and the pavilion was reconstructed at its current location. The house is 3 kan* in the front and 2 kan* on the side. The roof is a hip-and-gable roof. The pavilion has one room with under floor heating and a railing around the pavilion (*Kan: a traditional measurement that corresponds to the space between two columns)

The site used to be part of a temple but Nampyeong Moon Clan organized the land following a well-field system to make the area a residence for many generations. As of now, 9 houses and 2 pavilions as well as a low wall are located near the road. Subongjeongsa is the large main building, located in the center of the entire area. It is used as a gathering place, and features beautiful gardens. Gwanggeodang is the educational place for studies and refinement. Insumungo preserves about 10,000 books and clan treasures, starting from a small building but later being resized larger, including an additional building to read books.

Yeonggeumjeong refers to the area covering the shore by the Sokcho Lighthouse in Sokcho-si City. The name Yeonggeumjeong comes from a notion that the sound of waves hitting the rocks is comparable to the melody of geomungo (traditional stringed instrument with 6 strings). At the end of the 50m-long bridge built over a rocky peninsula is a pavilion offering a view of the East Sea.
