Dongcheon Sightseeing Guide - A Heavenly Garden in the Mysterious Karst Landscape

#OverseasTravel

Access: Take a direct bus from Guangzhou Baiyun Airport (2.5 hours, 120 won) or a taxi from Cheongwon Station (1 hour, 200 won). By car, take the Guangzhou → Yeongdeok → Dongcheonseonggyeong Expressway. Parking is free.

Must-see attractions include the 100-meter-deep Cheonjangdong lava cave, the Fenglinhui rock formations, and the Jiulonggang valley and its refreshing rock pools with 95% clarity. Spring (April-May) and fall (October-November) are the best seasons, offering breathtaking foggy mornings.

Precautions: trekking shoes are essential for the mountainous region's ever-changing temperatures, and non-slip shoes are essential in the humid caves.

For culinary delights, we recommend Yeongdeok's local specialty, "Chilseongwi" stir-fried vegetables, "Dolsotbap" wild vegetable wraps, and "Steamed Freshwater Eel." Dongcheon Seonkyung is a natural art museum with 200 million years of geological history, and a scenic spot where you can experience heavenly scenery.
