Jijok Strait begins to move turbulently past 12 o'clock twice a day, day and night. It is said that the current rushing through the narrow waters is so strong that it is difficult to cross whenever the tide changes. Changseon Bridge crosses this Jijok Strait, connecting Jijok-ri of Changseon-myeon and Jijok-ri of Samdong-myeon. It is 438m long and 14.5m wide, opened on December 20, 1995. Originally, Changseon Bridge was completed and used on June 5, 1980, but it collapsed in 1992 and was rebuilt. The bridge is not only a transportation route but also a place to enjoy the primal fishery form of jukbangryeom happening under it and the beauty of the sunset. Jukbangryeom, a living folk cultural asset preserving a primal fishing method, uses about 10m-long oak poles spread in the mudflats with nets woven like curtains. These are set in a V-shape facing the current, catching fish floating downstream by the flow. Currently, 23 jukbangryeom units remain uniquely in Jijok Strait of Namhae-gun, making it a highly valuable tourist resource.

남해파독전시관은 전국 지방자치단체 중에서 '파독'을 주제로 건립된 유일한 전시관으로 2014년 6월 28일 개관하였다. 지난 1960년대 우리나라는 1인당 국민소득이 76달러로 세계 최빈국이었으며 실업률이 30%에 달하는 실정이었다. 가난을 극복하기 위해 20kg 가방 하나 들고 이역만리 독일로 떠난 광부와 간호사들. 그들은 낯선 땅에서 최소한의 생활비만 남기고 받은 월급의 80% 이상을 고국의 가족들에게 송금하였으며, 그들이 흘린 땀과 눈물은 우리나라 경제발전의 원동력이 되었다. 그런 모습을 엿볼 수 있는 전시관이다

Namhae German Village is a village where Korean miners and nurses who worked in Germany returned and settled after retirement. You can see traditional German-style houses and German expatriates live here. About 30 households offer homestay accommodations as a side business. Each home features unique interior designs and services, attracting many tourists. Right in front is the refreshing sea of Bangjo Fish Grove and Mulmi Coastal Road, the most beautiful coastal drive course on the South Coast.

Darangi Village is located in Namhae-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. The ancestors expanded their farmland by cutting into the mountain slopes, building stone retaining walls, and creating terraced rice paddies. The narrow and long paddies start from the sea and continue in steps, facing Eungbongsan and Seolheulsan, the most beloved hiking trails in Namhae. Although the irregularly shaped paddies appear random, there are pleasant walking trails and observatories between them for comfortable exploration. It takes about an hour to visit Darangi's landmarks such as Amsuba Rock, Babmudeom, Cloud Bridge, and Mongdol Beach.
