Cheongamjeong pavilion is floating on a beautiful lake. The pavilion was built on a big and wide turtle-shaped natural stone. A pond has been created around the turtle rock. There are dense juniper, willow and pine trees around the pavilion, which makes the building even more elegant. The building is with gambrel roof, six main floored rooms and two ondolbang (room with the Korean floor heating system). Ondolbang is surrounded with the railings. A door is made in ondolbang, and it is usually hung on the ceiling of the main floored room. A window is established on the wall, and people open it on a sunny day. They can appreciate old pine tree, maple tree, zelkova tree and juniper, and listen to the sound of water of the valley. [Naver encyclopedia]


Cheongamjeong pavilion has drawn much attention of many people in Bongwha. The pavilion was established on the turtle-shaped rock. It looks so natural. Unfortunately, the waterway of Cheongamjeong pavilion was dried. But it was not hard to imagine the beautiful scenery of Cheongamjeong pavilion that used to be.



The sign warning “Not to climb” was put on the stone bridge. It would be only available for TV drama shooting, I guess. I was sorry for that. So I planned to go round Cheongamjeong pavilion, and take a picture.






I enjoyed the wind on the wooden floor of Cheongamjeong pavilion. I smelled the wood smoke, listened to the barking sound. I became one with the nature.



There is a building named “Choongjae” in front of Cheongamjeong pavilion. Sir. Choongjae usually stayed there. I thought it is the perfect place to become one with the nature, and discipline my mind.



There was a relic museum that keeps the article left by the deceased on the backside of Cheongamjeong pavilion. But it was not open in the early morning, so I just passed by.






Subok means longevity and good fortune. This Korean word is so special. I am going to walk around the village.



Spring came with Sanyu flower.



Red floral leave in the yard is welcoming Spring.



Taking a walk around the village while smelling wood smoke in the morning is so special to me.



Morning sunlight casts a shadow on a bicycle. It is not an old bicycle, but modern MTB. Haha.



Then I found an empty house in a nice spot. It is the most common house. There is a floor in the middle of the house, and there are rooms and a kitchen on both sides. There is a small pine forest on the backside of the house. You can overlook the village in front of the house.



I think people lived in the house not long ago, based on the condition of the windows. I eager to live here if I can purchase this house.



I don't know where this dog came from, but she looks so pathetic. I think she was deprived of her babies based on her lump in the breast. I hope she becomes happy.



White Japanese apricot flower is welcoming Spring.

Two long stovepipes are standing in front of the house. They look like guardians.

I found another deserted house. I found that it was built in 5th, May in 1975. The word “wealth” is written on it. Did the house owner leave the house after being rich?
