Introduction

Hwaam Mineral Spring, which gushes through the rock deep in Geurim Rock Mountain, is a natural sparkling water containing iron, carbonic acid, calcium, and nine other essential health elements, with a tingling taste. It is one of the Hwaam Eight Scenic Views and is a mysterious oxidized iron carbonated water believed to be effective for stomach diseases, anemia, eye diseases, and skin diseases, attracting many visitors. Around 1910, it is said that a person named Mun Myeong-mu discovered it after dreaming of two dragons, a blue and a yellow dragon, entwined, shining their rays and rising to the sky. Hwaam Mineral Spring has beautiful natural scenery with well-maintained walking paths, allowing a leisurely stroll to enjoy the views. The autumn foliage is especially beautiful from October to November. The nearby Auraji Ferry, famous for Jeongseon Arirang, and the scenic Garibong Mountain are popular tourist spots, as well as the Hwaam Eight Scenic Views including Hwaam Cave, Turtle Rock, and Molundae.
