Daepunggam is located at the northern-west edge of Ulleung-do, thus there were hardly any artificial touches nor any changes made to the natural environment. Thanks to such preservation, groups of aromatic trees called 'sangnamu' in Korean, inhabit in this island that could help to keep it its original state. The trees are mostly used for incense burning and have strong fragrance, therefore they are usually planted in the gardens and park for residents dating some decades ago. The site was designated for Natural Monument in 1962 and currently sparsely available around this area, the lumbering activities are strictly watched to protect them.
