Situated in Juwangsan National Park (in Cheongsong, Gyeongsangbuk-do), Cheongsong Museum was opened in 1999 to promote the history and culture of the county and its nearby area. The three-story museum offers indoor & outdoor exhibition halls and archive rooms. The Indoor Exhibition Hall showcases educational material related to farming and customs of Cheongsong. Exhibitions - such as the Traditional Guest Room, Weaving Room, Items of Everyday Use, and Cheongsong Porcelain - offer glimpses of how people lived in the past. The Outdoor Exhibition Hall reproduces a traditional tavern, Mulle banga (waterwheel), Yeonja Banga (a millstone operated by a horse or ox), Josan (a monument to ward off misfortunes and protect prosperity), and Seondol (natural stones used for worship), with which visitors can experience farm life in the past. Traditional totem poles (called Jangseung or Sotdae) await visitors at the entrance of the museum. Exhibition hours are between 9 am and 6 pm (until 5 pm during winter). The museum is also surrounded by many tourist attractions: Wangbeodeul (grand willow trees designated as Natural Monument No.297) in Bugok-dong, Dalgi Falls, Cheongun Stream, and Songsaeng-ri Student Campgrounds to name a few.

Located at the foot of a mountain, Dodong Mineral Spring Park is 300 meters from Dodong Harbor. Located in the park are the Dokdo Museum, and the Museum of History, as well as a mineral spring. As the name implies (yaksu means “medicinal water”), the spring contains minerals known as effective treatments for anemia and digestive disorders. After tasting the healthy water, one can take a look around this picturesque garden park. There is also a cable car that runs from Dodong Mineral Spring Park to Manghyangbong Peak, and in good weather, one can see Dokdo from Manghyangbong Peak.

Gangguhang Port is a large harbor in Yeongdeok, Gyeongsangnam-do Province. Osipcheon Stream, which is well known as a place for sweetfish-fishing, runs from Mt. Juwangsan in Cheongsong and empties into the sea at Gangguhang Port. Gangguhang Port is the main marketplace for Yeongdeok Daegae crabs and since there are so many places selling crabs near the port, the area is called "Daegae Street." Most recently, a large sculpture of a sailboat was put in place near the port, becoming a landmark for tourists. Gangguhang Port was a film location for many dramas and movies and is also famous for its driving course that winds along the coast and through the fishing community (Road #918 between Gangguhang Port and Chuksanhang Port).

Seonyudong Gyegok Valley in Mungyeong is longer and more beautiful than the valley of the same name in Goesan. Mount Daeyasan (931 meters high) runs across both valleys, which are 10 kilometers apart from each other. The valley is relatively untouched as it is not yet well known by the public. At the beginning and the end of the trail are Hakcheonjeong and Chirujeong pavilions, respectively. Both sides of the valley are lined with thick forests of ancient pine trees. A number of stone carvings can be found in the forest, and the most famous one reads “Seonyu Gyegok (Seonyu Valley).” It was written by Choi Chi-won (857~?), a leading scholar of the Silla Kingdom.

Yongchu Gyegok Valley is located in Mt. Daeyasan and it is the unique place where the water does not dry up throughout the year. Mt. Daeyasan, which is located in Wanjang-ri, Gaeun-eup, Mungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, is formed of sharp peaks and all different types of Giamgoeseok, and the waters that flow through the valleys do so all year long. It borders Chungbuk Goesan-gun and Gyeongbuk Mungyeong-si, and is located in Mt. Daeyasan (931m). The three-tiered Yongchu Pokpo Waterfall, located in Yongchu Gyegok Valley, is a legendary pace where two female dragons flew up to the sky. Yongchu Gyegok Valley is divided into Upper Yongchu and Lower Yongchu. The place where the water falls out of the granite foundation down to where the heart-shaped pond is, is Upper Yongchu, and below that point is Lower Yongchu. On either side of Yongchu, there are two large markings on the granite boulders, which are said to be dragon scale markings, made as they rose up to the sky. Even when other places are suffering from droughts, water flows abundantly here. Above the Yongchu Waterfall, past the base rock about 20 minutes away, you will reach Wolyeongdae. It was named after its breathtaking view of the moon reflected on the water flowing through the rocks in the valley below. Near Yongchu Gyegok Valley there is the Seonyudong Gyegok Valley, also called Seonyu Gyegok (a place of 9 sceneries) where the Okgyesu River runs through two great rocks, which look as if it is artificially split.
