Jukgyegugok Valley is the valley stretching from Baejeom-ri to Choamsa Temple.
Joseon-era Confucian scholar Toegye Yi Hwang (1501-1570) was inspired by the
scenery of the valley and the enchanting sound of the flowing water, so he came
up with names for each of the nine sections of the valley and collectively called
them Jukgyegugok (nine bamboo valleys). The valley presents a splendid sight
indeed with crystal clear waters, lush forest, and white rocks. In summer, vacationers
from around the country flock to Jukgyegugok Valley to cool off from the sweltering
heat by dipping their feet in the refreshing waters of the valley. Famous tourist
attractions near the valley include Sosuseowon Confucian Academy, Buseoksa Temple,
and Eupnaeri Mural Tomb.
* Choamsa Temple
On the path that ascends from Jukgyegugok Valley, there is a small temple
located at the foot of Sobaeksan Mountain. The great monk Uisang Daesa of the
Silla Kingdom reached this place during his search for an ideal site to build
a Buddhist temple invoking national security. He set up a small thatched hut
for a temporary stay until he found the most propitious spot, on which he built
Buseoksa Temple. In the site where his thatched hut once stood, he built another
temple and named it Choamsa Temple. The original structure was destroyed by
fire during the Korean War (1950-1953). The temple has been restored to its
present state by the Buddhist monk Lee Bo-won after years of arduous efforts.
