About

The name Pocheon Valley comes from "Pocheon Nine Bends," a poem by Joseon-era scholar Ungwa Yi Won-jo. He built the Mangwijeong pavilion beside the waterfall upstream and spent his later years there. Mangwijeong and Pocheon Valley are among the Top 10 Scenic Spots of Seongju. In midsummer, many visitors cool off in the valley near Mangwijeong. Visitors can enjoy green mountain scenery and the waterfall in clean natural surroundings.
