Romantic Day Tour Tourist Hightlights
Yangpyeong Dumulmeori
Dumulmeori got its name from its location where Bukhangang River and Namhangang River meet. Originally, Dumulmeori served as a ferry dock instead of a scenery spot. However, since the new land route, Paldang dam was built in 1973, Dumulmeori gradually lost it function of a ferry dock and transformed into a tranquil and lyrical scenic spot.
One of the attractions in here is the 400 years old Zelkova trees that appear as one giant tree. The old tree, along with the early morning's wet fog seems add more picturesque beauty to the surrounding nature.
Though it is a privately owned place, Dumulmeori remains as a popular site for shooting Korean TV dramas, movies, commercials, wedding pictures as well as nature pictures. Every year, numerous people are attracted to this place just to admire it natural beauty!
Also, situated to the right of the entrance of Dumulmeori, Semilwon, the other main attraction, is a must-visit place when you come to this area. It is an art gallery where visitors can enjoy the artwork, have their portraits drawn, or drink tea in a quiet environment.
