Gwiraejeong is a pavilion located in Sunchang-gun, Jeonbukteukbyeoljachi-do. The name Gwiraejeong comes from the pen name of Shin Mal-ju. On the pavilion, there are plaques engraved with Gwiraejeonggi and poetry by Kang Hui-maeng. Gwiraejeong is said to have been built in 1457 (2nd year of King Sejo) by Shin Mal-ju, but the current building was rebuilt in 1974 with a front of 3 kan, side of 2 kan, and a hip-and-gable roof. Nearby attractions include Gangcheonsan County Park, National Hoemunsan Natural Recreation Forest, and the Seolssi Lady Shin Kyung-jun Memorial Site.
Sunchang Daemosanseong Fortress is a mountain fortress built on Daemosan in Baeksan-ri, Sunchang-eup, Sunchang-gun, active from the Three Kingdoms period to the Joseon Dynasty. It was constructed during the Three Kingdoms period and used as a military granary during the Joseon Dynasty. It is believed that the fortress walls remain because they were close to the administrative office (chisosiji) of Sunchang-hyeon and able to protect the granary. According to historical records, Daemosanseong is also called 'Grandmother Mountain Fortress' (Hol-eomeoni Sanseong) because it is said that at first, an old woman lived there with her nine sons and built the fortress. A large amount of grain was stored and later used as official grain. The layout is trapezoidal, a stone fortress enclosing two peaks in a valley style, with a perimeter of about 875 meters, making it a medium-sized fortress, second in scale only to nearby Damyang Geumsungsanseong. Inside the fortress lies Daemo Rock and a flat area has been formed. Many parts of the fortress wall have collapsed, but the north and west walls remain about 4 to 5 meters high, with the north wall restored. The south wall is a steep natural slope.
Sunchang Daemoam is a temple located north of Sunchang Daemosanseong, a mountain fortress site from the Baekje period. It was founded by Hakseong in 1933 but was almost destroyed during the Korean War (6·25). In 1973, the main hall was restored, and in 1985, the bell pavilion was built. In 1993, a new Daewoongjeon (main Buddha hall) was constructed. Daemoam consists of the Daewoongjeon, the bell pavilion, and two dormitory buildings. Daewoongjeon is a wooden structure with a hipped-and-gabled roof, three bays wide at the front and two bays deep. Dancheong (traditional decorative coloring) is painted inside and outside, and murals on the exterior walls depict flower-and-bird paintings and Simwudo (an image likening seeking one's true nature to searching for an ox). There is a Buddha on the Buddha wall. The Daewoongjeon houses the 'Daemoam wooden seated Buddha statue,' moved here during the late Japanese occupation period. It is estimated to be from the mid-17th century. The statue sits with both hands on its knees, touching the thumb and middle fingers. The square face and simplified folds of the robe suggest it was made by the monk sculptor Huiji active in the 17th century. Buddhist texts important for academic research, such as Jakseop Gwigeom and Bojangnok, were found inside the statue.

Sunchang Hyanggyo, designated as Cultural Heritage No. 68 of Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province, preserves the architectural style of hyanggyo from the early Joseon period. Although the exact date of establishment is unknown, it is estimated to have been built during the reign of Seongjong (1469–1494). It originated in Gokcheon-dong during the reign of Goryeo's King Gongyang by Governor Choi Jabi and was relocated to its current location in Okcheon-dong in 1489 by County Magistrate Kim Sugwang under the direction of Mongam Lee Sookgam. Existing structures include Daeseongjeon, Dongmu, Seomu, Myeongnyundang, Dongjae, Seojae, Naesammun, and Oesammun. Daeseongjeon measures three kan in front and three kan in side, while Myeongnyundang is seven kan by two kan.
