The First Art Space Inside the Civilian Control Line

Yeongang Gallery in Yeoncheon is the first art space in Korea located inside the Civilian Control Zone, created by remodeling a former security exhibition hall into a gallery. Experiencing artworks inside the Civilian Control Zone, where an ID is required for entry, offers a uniquely moving experience. The bustling center of Yeoncheon is the area around Jeongok Station rather than Yeoncheon Station. Centered around Jeongok Station on the Gyeongwon Line, the area is packed with tourist attractions, great restaurants, and cafes, making it a must-visit destination during a trip to Yeoncheon. The Chatancheon Eumgil is a geotrail that runs along geological highlights such as the fold structure in Eundae-ri and the columnar joints of Chatancheon Stream.
