The area preserves rich Korean heritage, especially in herbal medicine and tea ceremonies, attracting wellness-focused travelers.
Must-see spots include Jirisan National Park for hiking and autumn foliage, Chaoksan Village for traditional tea experiences, and Namwon Valley famed for pristine waters. Culture enthusiasts should visit Hamyang Herbal Medicine Museum to explore local medical history.
