Mannyeongyo Bridge is a bridge located in Yeongsan-myeon, Changnyeong-gun, and is also called Wondari (Won Bridge) because a local magistrate repaired the bridge. It is designated as a treasure, and the Namcheonseokgyobi stone monument at the boundary of the bridge reveals that it was constructed in 1780 by stonemason Baek Jin-gi and repaired in 1892 by county governor Shin Gwan-jo, who commissioned stonemason Kim Nae-gyeong. Large stones were placed on natural rock formations, and flat stones were stacked to form a semicircular arch with a rainbow shape. The arch materials are granite blocks, and the front and back bridge walls are filled with natural rough stones, but relatively large squared stones were arranged above the arch keystone. Above the arch stone structure, the slope is covered with gentle soil, and the parapet stone walls extend further lengthwise connecting to the roads on both stream banks.
Yeongsan National Defense Park was designated as an urban park in 1973 and was reorganized as the nation's first defense park on May 31, 1982. Although not large in scale, it is one of Korea's notable defense parks. It is a sacred place for the three major national defense struggles, featuring the Imjin War Defense Memorial Tower, the March 1st Movement Beacon and Monument, and the Korean War Yeongsan District Battle Monument. Behind the Imjin War Defense Memorial Tower, a waterwheel is turning. This area is commemorated as the first site of the March 1st Movement in Gyeongsangnam-do by Yeongsan County, where an annual March 1st ceremony is held. The rainbow-shaped bridge at the park entrance, Man-nyeon-gyo (Ten Thousand Year Bridge), is a treasure showing the construction techniques of arched bridges (hong-gae-gyo) in the southern region during the late Joseon Dynasty, with significant academic value. Nearby attractions include Yeonji Pond, Yeongsan Seokbinggo, Yeongsan Mineral Spring, Yeongchuksanseong Fortress, Yeongsan Eupseong Site, Yeongsan Beophwaam Multi-Story Stone Pagoda, Bugok Hot Spring Tourist Zone, Upo Wetland Ecological Park, and Hwawangsan County Park.
Yeonjimot in Changnyeong is a reservoir created by ancestors to prevent fires in Yeongsan and benefit agriculture. It is called Yeonji (硯池) because its shape resembles a traditional inkstone. It is located adjacent to Yeongsan Hoguk Park. Five islands float in the pond, creating a beautiful scene; the two largest islands are connected by a bridge and accessible via a walking path. The pond has been developed into a park where an annual Lantern Festival is held, and various facilities like a playground, exercise equipment, and foot acupressure paths are available for visitors year-round. The weeping cherry blossoms during their bloom season create especially stunning scenery, attracting many tourists. Additionally, Yeongsan Mannyeongyo, which has become a popular spot for reflection shots, is right in front, making it common for visitors to take a walk around Yeonjimot and then move on to Mannyeongyo.
Seokbinggo is an ice storage building showcasing the wisdom of ancestors who harvested ice in the cold winter and stored and used it until the hot summer. Yeongsan Seokbinggo faces Yeongchwisan Mountain in front and backs a stream behind. Although smaller in scale compared to other seokbinggo in the Gyeongsang province, it shares the same construction style. Today, a levee upstream has dried up the stream, but in the past, there was ample water here, making it easy to harvest ice in winter. The exact construction date is unknown, but based on scale, it is estimated to be from the late 18th century. According to Yeojido and late Joseon period records, it is presumed to have been built by Governor Yun Chi-il. Traces remain of a stone door that could be opened and closed, located on the opposite side of the stream beside the seokbinggo entrance. Inside via stairs, the floor slopes slightly toward the stream, designed so melted ice water naturally drains to the stream through an outlet. The ceiling has three arched vaults, with dressed long stones bridging them, and ventilation openings for hot air to escape.
Yeongsan Hyanggyo's original construction date is unknown, but it was rebuilt during the reign of King Jungjong (1506–1544) and has remained since then. The buildings include Pungwhamun (the main gate), Myeongnyundang (the study hall), East and West dormitories, and Daeseongjeon (the main shrine enshrining Confucius' spirit tablet), arranged in a typical Jeonhak-humyo style with Myeongnyundang at the front and Daeseongjeon at the back. Uniquely, there is some distance between Myeongnyundang and Daeseongjeon, and the Daeseongjeon lacks Eastern and Western auxiliary buildings. Daeseongjeon is a three-bay by three-bay building with a simple hip-and-gable roof in the Jusimpo style, while Myeongnyundang is a five-bay by two-bay building with a hipped roof. Rituals are currently held in spring and autumn. Yeongsan Hyanggyo is a historic site that provides valuable materials for local history research in Changnyeong-gun.
