Tour Objects

Full

Todamsambong

Literally, "three rock-leaves in deep water" - a place sung in poems and paintings by famous Korean poets, thinkers and artists - Lee Hwan, Kim Chong-hee, Kim Hongdong, and Panun.

Here, for example, are the poems of the great Yi Hwan, depicted on the one thousandth bill:


山明楓葉水明沙

三島斜陽帶晩霞

爲泊仙橫翠壁

待看星月湧金波

Red maples - the mountains are light, sand is visible at the bottom

Three rocks that stand in the river, the light of the evening sun ...

The raft of the hermit over the emerald of waters froze motionless, waiting

The stars and the moon run towards me like a golden path

Yi Hwang (Thwege)

A legend about Jeon Dojon, one of the founders of the Joseon state who was born in Danyang, is associated with this place.

Hahoe Folk Village

Hahoe - a village surrounded on three sides by the Naktong River, as if located in a loop of this river; from this geographical feature comes the name of the village - literally "fifth of the river".

Hahoe is famous for its old houses that have been preserved and are still used by the owners - both peasant and aristocratic houses; the famous dance with masks "Thalchhum", as well as the oldest surviving set of these same wooden masks for dancing. In 1999, Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain celebrated her birthday in the village.

A regular masked dance performance will be a nice live addition to the tour (the performance may not take place on a given day, depending on the season and day of the week).

Stone Gate 石門

Seokmun - 석문/石門 literally means "stone gate". It is a large natural stone arch located on the banks of the South Hangang River.

Andong Hanji (Traditional Korean Paper Factory)

On the way to the village of Hahoe, there is a small factory that produces traditional Korean hanji paper. The plant is open to the general public: you can walk through the workshops and get acquainted with the process of making paper, raw materials.
