Trivium is a special retreat nestled in the quiet village of Dongcheon-ri, Jinwi-myeon, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do. Founded by a landscape architect and his wife, an aromatherapist, Trivium was envisioned as a place where visitors could set aside the weight of daily life and find true rest. The name trivium is a Latin word meaning “the three paths of learning,” symbolizing grammar, logic, and rhetoric, which compose the foundation of classical scholarship. Beyond its beautiful scenery, Trivium aspires to be an academic and philosophical space where everyone can explore the self and find inspiration. As Zhuangzi once said, “People see their reflection not in flowing water, but in still water." In this spirit, Trivium offers a unique experience of encountering oneself and the world in tranquility. More than just a building, it is a harmonious and serene sanctuary and a place of learning where people and nature breathe together.
