Jukbangryeom (죽방렴)
Gyeongsangnam-do(Namhae-gun)

Jijok Strait flows between Jijok Village in the towns of Samdong-myeon and Changseon-myeon. Fishing on Jijok Strait is done by using traditional bamboo weirs called jukbangnyeom. Along the tidal flats where the water is deep and the current is fast, some 300 oak-wood beams as high as 10 meters are driven into the sea bed with bamboo screens to form V-shaped traps. The fish caught in the incoming tide get trapped in the narrow “V” end, which are then retrieved with a scoop net. The seafood products from this area are known for their exceptional quality because the surrounding waters are clean. The anchovies and seaweed caught from Jijok Strait are among the most highly sought-after in Korea. Changseondaegyo Bridge (440m) links Changseondo Island to the city of Sacheon. Following its collapse in 1992, the bridge underwent repairs and reopened in December, 1995. Fishing from this bridge will yield a catch big enough to feed the whole family. Along with Jukbangryeom, Amsubawi Rock in Gacheon Village is also regarded as one of Namhae’s valuable cultural assets.

Starting from the entrance of the village, a stair-like canola field stretches out 2 km into the distance.

Jeodo Island (저도(딱섬))
Gyeongsangnam-do(Sacheon-si)

Jeodo Island derives its name from the abundance of paper mulberry (a fiber crop largely used for papermaking) growing on the island. The Sino-Korean character "楮" (jeo) refers to paper mulberry, while "島" (do) refers to island. The native Korean word for paper mulberry is “daknamu”. Hence, the island is also called Dakseom. Hanji, a Korean handcrafter paper, is made from the inner back of paper mulberry. On Jeodo Island, one can get a glimpse of what daily life in a small fishing village is like. The island can also be seen just behind the bamboo weirs from Siran Dock. The view is a combination of a lighthouse, fishing site, lush meadows, and lodgings with the ocean in the background. * Area: 38,216㎡
