Geochang-gun is situated in the mountainous inland area in the northwestern part of Gyeongnam Province and shares borders with Gyeongbuk and Jeonbuk provinces. Suseungdae (수승대) is located in Deogyusan National Park (덕유산국립공원), which is located in the center of the adjoining three provinces. Suseungdae is one of Geochang’s oldest tourist attractions. Suseungdae was originally named ‘Susongdae’ since it was a place where Baekje dispatched its envoys to Shilla during the Three Kingdom Era. Later, in the Joseon Dynasty, the name was changed to Suseungdae. Old-style lecture halls and pavilions provide great lookout points for visitors. The attraction is also fully equipped with an outdoor swimming pool, a camp site, and various other facilities. On August evenings, it is also the place of The International Theatre Festival.
