Miryang Yeongnamnu Pavilion
밀양 영남루
Located on Adongsan Mountain beside the Namcheongang River in Miryang, Yeongnamnu Pavilion (Treasure No. 147) is counted among Korea's three major pavilions alongside Chokseongnu Pavilion in Jinju and Bubyeongnu Pavilion in Pyeongyang. Featuring a hipped-and-gabled roof measuring 5 kan east-to-west and 4 kan north-to-south, flanked by two auxiliary pavilions, this massive two-story structure was originally a small pavilion attached to Yeongnamsa Temple, one of the five prominent temples of Silla. Historical records show that after Yeongnamsa Temple fell into ruin, the pavilion was rebuilt on a larger scale during the reign of King Gongmin of Goryeo, and the present building was reconstructed in 1884 by Yi In-jae, the magistrate of Miryang.MoreLess

Miryang Eoreumgol Valley
밀양 얼음골
The roughly 29,752 m² (about 9,000 pyeong) valley located on the northern hillside of Jaeyaksan Mountain (Cheonhwangsan Mountain) at an altitude of about 600–750 meters is known as Eoreumgol Valley (Ice Valley). This mysterious place begins freezing in spring and only thaws after Cheoseo (the end of summer heat), while in winter, the stream does not freeze and warm steam rises instead. The hotter the weather gets, the more ice forms in the rock crevices, and in winter, steam warm enough to wear short sleeves rises. Known as the "Mystery of Miryang," it is protected as Natural Monument No. 224.MoreLess
