Jecheon in Chungcheongbuk-do is gaining attention from domestic travelers for its beautiful natural landscapes, where mountains, lakes, and valleys harmonize. Notable attractions include Uirimji, a reservoir dating back to the Samhan period, the Cheongpungho Lake Cable Car, and the Oksunbong Suspension Bridge.
Uirimji, an ancient reservoir built during the Samhan period, is conveniently located near the Yongchu Waterfall Glass Observatory, Uirimji History Museum, and Uirimji Parkland, making it suitable for a half-day itinerary. The Cheongpungho Lake Cable Car operates for approximately 9 minutes from Multeri Station to the peak of Bibongsan Mountain, offering panoramic views of Cheongpungho Lake from its transparent crystal cabins. The Oksunbong Suspension Bridge, a 222-meter-long towerless bridge, showcases the stunning scenery where Oksunbong's unique rock formations meet the blue lake. Additionally, the Cheongpung Cultural Heritage Complex preserves and restores cultural assets and homes that were at risk of being submerged.
Local bloggers recommend visiting Uirimji's free parking lot early on weekends due to limited space and suggest exploring the free Uirimji History Museum with children to learn about its historical background. For the Cheongpungho Lake Cable Car, booking in advance via Naver is advised for discounts and reduced waiting times. When visiting the Oksunbong Suspension Bridge, wearing comfortable athletic shoes is recommended.
