Dodamsambong


I finally went to the highlight of Danyang 8, the no.1 among Danyang 8, Dodamsambong. It was less than 5 minutes away from Jangdari restaurant. It is a bit closer to the downtown, too.



There is a parking fee of 2,000won. Aside from Dodamsambong, there are stone gate, and museum of mining and manufacturing industries, and etc.



Dodamsambong is three small stones floating on the water. There is a connection with Jeong Do Jeon who was born near here in Joseon dynasty; thus, there is a statue of him in front.

The myth about him is that Dodamsambong was originally Sambongsan from Jeongseon county, and it went down because of flood so they paid taxes to Jeongseon every year. But Jeong Do Jeon said that it was never their fault to move down Sambong to Jeongseon and it blocked the waterway so get them back to the place. After what he said, they did not pay taxes to Jeongseon anymore. Well, it's up to you to believe it or not though.



These are dodamsambong! On the left side, it is called "cheopbong" or "ddal(daughter)bong" while on the right side, it is called " cheobong " or "adeul(son)bong." In the middle, it is called "nampyenbong" or "abeoji(father)bong." In the middle, there is a pavilion called Samdojeong.

It's usually muddy water during summer. But it did not rain when we visited so the water was clear.



At the corner, they posted that "2 Days 1 Night" TV show team visited this area.



On the right side of Dodamsambong, there is a smalldock for cruise ships. It's cheaper than Janghwinaru, but I don't suggest this because it's small and the facilities are not good.



In the parking lot of Dodamsambong, there is a museum of mining and manufacturing industries. Danyang is also famous for lime and cement.

Lower ground floor is about lime production and related products. First floor is about Danyang's mine and mineral, and lastly, second floor is an exhibition of minerals and fossils where you can actually touch minerals. However, I was not able to go inside because it was already closed.

Walking 50m from the museum of mining and manufacturing industries, there is crafts gallery. It is privately operated and they exhibit various crafts like woodcraft, ceramist arts and the like.

Danyang is also known for chinaware arts. But I personally recommend Banggok pottery gallery in Daegangmyen if you are interested in pottery. They have more crafts to see.



They have a horse to ride on just like many other tourist spots have also.



They accept song requests and during summer, manyresidents around this area also visit to cool off some summer heat. However,

there are fixed operating times and during operating time, it's free to watch.

When you go to very inside of the parking lot, you can see Dodamsambong's musical fountain. It has seats in front and back of the fountain so that tourists can watch the show. If you sit at the back, you can see the sunset and Dodamsambong together.



There is Stone Gate of Danyang right beside the musical fountain. This stone gate is a stone pillar which shapes like a pedestrian overpass that has a hole and it is No. 2 of 8 views of Danyang.



It is a bit steep hill. You have to claim about 200m.



When you pass by a small summerhouse, you can see these signs. To Seongmun, only 50m left! From here, it becomes a downhill even though it becomes an uphill when you are going back.

I finally arrived at the stone gate with sweats all over my body. I have known for the stone gate and I thought it would be just a rock. But when I saw it personally, it was bigger than I thought. You can take a boat to see it. I personally suggest it during summer so that you don't have to sweat like me.

I went down and washed up at the restroom. I rested for a while and got stamp at the information desk.


Dodamsambong is not far from Danyang downtown and it had lots of things to see compared to other tourist spots. I knew why this place is considered as the best scenery in Danyang. Moreover, it had lights for night visits so you can see views at night, too. It's better to go when the water level is high because depending on its water level, the emotional feelings you get will be different.

BookByek Pension


Dodamsambong was the last for today's morning schedule. We headed to Bookbyek pension. We made a reservation ahead and it was located at the end of Danyang's east. It takes 30 minutes from the downtown.



You can see people paragliding in the sky while going there. We used the room at the second floor. It was clean and the scenery was good.


The owner of the pension was kind and friendly. He told us to get some vegetables at the garden if we did not buy any. For our barbeque, he used hardwood charcoals to make fire and put half of gridiron and stone board. These made our barbeque more delicious.



The room was clean and air conditional was working well. We unpacked our bags and went out to the veranda.



You can immediately see Namhan River! On the right side, you can see Ondal tourist spot where we will visit tomorrow. Actually, around this pension, there is Bookbyek where you can see another Danyang's beauty. They call it Bookbyek because stone wall is like a folding screen and they have beautiful royal azalea and fall foliage during spring and autumn.



It had many leports like ATV, rafting around here compared to other tourist spots. When we arrived, we saw many people enjoying rafting.




I had no energy to enjoy those leports, but to just rest at the swimming pool for children in the pension. I rested about an hour and went to Danyang Gukyung Market.

Danyang Gukyung Market 단양구경시장


It took me 30 minutes to arrive at Gukyung market in a town from the pension.



Gukyung market is big compared to other markets in provinces and is neatly arranged.



Every store is well arranged. In the middle of the market, there is a big drum and its name is "Jangbogo."



Every 16th of month, the market gets bigger meaning there are more stores ready for you. Of course, like other markets, there are lots of things to buy, but the main product of this market is garlic.



Today was the 16th of the month. However, there were only few people around. Recently, people rarely go to markets like this because most of them go to the big marts where they can shop more comfortably and conveniently.



They posted that there would be a night market, but it was just a small festival for merchants in the market. Did I expect too much?



But there were lots of food! I found one of the delicious store located at the corner of the market named "Sunsal Dakgangjeong (Boneless chicken)"



This is Bbalgan Odeng(spicy odeng) which I usually ate back then. They put the soup of Ddeokbokgi to the Odeng and it is a little bit spicy. Its price is 1,000won for 3 pieces.



The best menu is Memil Maneul Yachaemal-i (Buck wheat, garlic and vegetable roll). It's similar with "Chomddeok" in Gangwondo. They roast thin buck wheat and put lots of vegetables and kimchi and cut it into bites. It is a bit spicy but very delicious.



It's 3,000won for 3pieces and they sell one piece for 1,000won, too. She gave me this with soup of Bbalgan odeng.



I quickly ate them all and waited for next food to be served.



It's Susubukkumi! They mixed glutinous rice and susu powder and put red bean in it. It's sweek like Hoddeok and chewy like glutinous rice cake. I think both adults and children would like this taste.


She gave me a cup of Odeng soup and she said don't drink it but put chopsticks before you use them to eat it because it might stick to it. (They do not stick to steel chopsticks.)



It's 3,000won for 1 piece. It was a bit expensive among other foods here and it was hard to eat. My girlfriend said it was not really good after eating them all. But they were delicious for me. (Well, I think all foods are delicious for me.)



Wanju Dakjip is also famous for "Heukmaneul dakgangjeong (black garlic chicken)." Nevertheless, we did not taste it because we were up to eat something more delicious!



It's Oseong chicken! It's very crispy and specially, they fry chicken's large intestine.


The restaurant was full! No seats available at the time. It takes one hour for takeout, too! And for more, I wanted to taste chicken's large intestine, but it was all sold out today so only fried chicken was available.



Well, I could not give up but to taste so I bought fried chicken with vegetable for takeout. It was very crispy and delicious!!



There were sauce for yangnyem chicken, radish, and soy sauce with red peppers. Leek was the main vegetable in the chicken and it was incredibly delicious.


One thing I dislike was that the batter was too salty that I could not eat it with soy sauce. Nonetheless, it was very crispy to the point that I forgot about the salty part.


When I went out from the restaurant, I saw some smokes.



It was the car for prevention against cholera. I was surprised to see one because it's no longer active in the cities.


I saw the car going around twice and realized that it was already late so I went back to the pension immediately.


It was chilly at night compared to Seoul. So I did not turn on the aircon. I started to eat chicken I bought and fell asleep right after I finished eating.
