Kimseobangnae Dakgalbi is a Taebaek-style dakgalbi (spicy stir-fried chicken) restaurant located at the entrance of Hwangji Pond. This version of dakgalbi is distinct from the Chuncheon style as it includes vegetables like kkaennip (perilla leaves), cabbage, and ssukgat (crown daisy) cooked in broth. The fragrant aroma of ssukgat and the spicy soup beautifully complement the chicken. The homemade sauce enhances the broth's flavor, and finishing the meal with bokkeumbap (fried rice) prepared using the remaining soup is considered a highlight.

Taebaek Sangjang-dong Mural Village, also called “Nambu Village”, is located in Sangjang-dong, Taebaek-si as the name refers. The village has been improved upon by residents who volunteered and shared their artistic talents to participate in Taebaek-si’s new village movement in 2011. Each alley throughout the village gives a unique and refreshing ambience that created a turning point in the village. Also, valuable events such as ‘Yeontan (briquette) painting contest’ are held for students and families to participate in and share their warm hearts. The Central Inland Region Train (O-Train), which began operating as of April 12, 2013 by Korail, stops in Taebaek-si, so tourists can easily reach the mural village via train.

Deoksangigyegok Valley is adorned with several waterfalls, the most majestic being a 40-meter-tall waterfall located upstream. The beauty of the valley is further enhanced by numerous ponds scattered throughout the area. Notable landmarks include Nangmoam Rock, situated upstream, which strikingly resembles a reclining woman, and Seokburam Rock in the midstream area, said to mirror the image of a sitting Buddha. The valley itself, soaring over 100 meters high, is characterized by layered rock cliffs. These formations are the result of tectonic movements and weathering that have occurred over hundreds of millions of years, adding a profound sense of history and natural wonder to the landscape.
