Seonbawi Resort Area

In Ipam-ri, Beomseo-eup, Ulju-gun, there is a rock called Seonbawi that stands tall with a rock type entirely different from the surrounding geology, as if a peak of Haegeumgang in Geumgangsan had been moved here. In the past, people said a white dragon lived in the Baengnyongdam rapids that cradle the rock, and rain rituals held here during droughts were believed to be effective. Locals once recited poetry, sang, and enjoyed nature here, and later a pavilion called Ipamjeong was built. Today Seonbawi still stands like a living witness to the Taehwa River, which has flowed for tens of thousands of years, and many visitors come to see it.
