Gangwon-do(Yeongwol-gun)

The Dongang ferry was once a popular mode of transportation along the Hangang River.

With the beautiful Donggang River as a backdrop, the event offers a wide array of performances, cultural events (honoring the Joseon poet Kim Sat-gat), and outdoor activities (rafting, hang-gliding, paragliding, etc).
