Manhyujeong Pavilion is the pavilion of Bobaekdang Kim Gye-haeng and was built in 1500. The present building shows a modified appearance through remodeling, and only a part shows the style of the late Joseon dynasty. Kim Gye-haeng was a civil servant in the early Joseon dynasty and held various government posts. However, when he met the tyranny of Yeonsangun, he abandoned the government post and returned to his hometown. After that, a small pavilion was built along Seolmot (currently Sosan 2-ri), but since it was next to the road, he built Manhyujeong Pavilion in a quieter place. If you cross the stream from Mukgyeseowon Confucian Academy and enter the mountain, you can find it located in a magnificent valley that faces southeast and has a waterfall flowing over the rocks.
