The site is 4,121.707 ㎥, fairly flat and even therefore a perfect place for visitors to stroll around the area. An old folktale has it that, the name 'sinseon' (or Taoist in English) was given because the sacred people came to the mountain to rest and play, attracted by its spectacular view. The area has been highly appreciated by visitors for some hundreds of decades, and a documentary from one notable scholar from the Silla Era, Choi Chi-won, testifies the impressive looks from during his time.

Oryukdo is a rocky island located in the oceanside of the Yongho-dong neighborhood. Depending on the tides, Oryukdo (“O” meaning “5”, “Yuk” meaning “6”) sometimes looks as if it is made of five or six islets. Several decades after the Busanhang Port opened (1876), a lighthouse was built (November 1937) in Batseom Island of Oryukdo to guide ships traveling to and from the island. Initially only 6.2 meters high, the lighthouse underwent renovations (completed in December 1998) and now stands tall at 27.5 meters. The lighthouse is home to an exhibition room showing photos of major lighthouses in Korea and boasts a stunning view of Busanhang Port as well as an unforgettable nightscape.
