Experience Jincheon's history and nature all at once!

1. Botapsa Temple

Yeongok-ri, Sanggye-ri, Jincheon-eup, where Botapsa Temple is located, is famous as the birthplace of General Kim Yu-sin! 🙌

Botapsa Temple has a rich history dating back to the Goryeo Dynasty.

The magnificent three-story stone pagoda of Botapsa Temple, newly built in 1996 after construction began in 1992, is truly a sight to behold! 🤩

Do you know the meaning of the name Botapsa?

It comes from the story of the Seven Treasure Pagoda in the Lotus Sutra,

and it means wishing that everyone's heart is filled with the Buddha's teachings, full of compassion, and happiness!

2. Mir Forest

Mir Forest, which you can find by crossing the thousand-year-old Nongdari Bridge!

In Mir Forest, you can encounter a blue dragon winding around the Korean peninsula and living, breathing nature.

You can enjoy various flora and fauna as well as experiences. 🥳✨

3. Chopyeong Lake

The Chorong Trail, which connects the mysterious millennium-old Nongdari Bridge and Chopyeong Lake, is perfect for a walk!

It is especially beautiful during outing season, so many people visit. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

1. Manhoesan Natural Ecology Park

The ecological park, which opened in 2009, offers various experiences unlike ordinary parks!

At Manhoesan Natural Ecology Park, you can find an ecological pond where you can see aquatic plants, a native arboretum, and a honey plant garden.

A wild flower/herb garden where you can smell the fragrant scent of herbs.

An ecological education center & insect observation center that are great to visit with children!

You can learn and experience everything about nature in a large space of 35,848 pyeong.

I highly recommend it as a family outing course. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Deoksan Brewery, built in 1930, is a traditional brewery that still produces traditional liquor, now in its third generation! 🍶

The brewery's building preserves the original form of a wooden building with a tin roof,

so you can see the traditional production facilities. 🤩🏞️
