About
Yongchu Falls stands in front of Yongchu Temple, deeper into Yongchu Valley, also called Simjin-dong and one of the three scenic spots of Anui. The valley has the Simwon-jeong pavilion at its entrance and layered granite rocks. Jangsusa Temple, founded in the Silla period, was destroyed in the Korean War, and only its gate remains. Yongchu Valley ends at the Yongchu Natural Recreation Forest run by Hamyang County, with hiking trails to Mount Gibaek and Mount Hwangseok.
