Explanation

Hansando Island is located in the middle of Hallyeohaesang National Park. Despite this, it is more well-known for its historical importance in connection with Admiral Yi Sun-sin. This is where he commanded the fleets for a majority of the Imjin War (1592-1598). It was also the site of the Great Battle of Hansan.

The island houses Jeseungdang Shrine, serving as a place for people to pay their respects to the admiral. However, the lush forest and outstanding view tend to draw in more tourists.
