Hancheon Sports Park, located beside Hancheon, was established as a space for improving the fitness and rest of Yecheon residents. It features various sports facilities such as basketball courts, badminton courts, and an inline skating rink, along with a plaza where diverse sports can be enjoyed. Convenience facilities including an outdoor performance hall, walking trails, children's playground, acupressure sidewalks, ecological complex, grass park, and pergola serve as places for leisure, rest, and social gatherings for citizens. The Yecheon Cultural Tourism Foundation holds events here such as the Yecheon Archery Culture Festival and Yecheon Insect Festival, which promote local culture, encourage community participation, cultural activities, solidarity, and pride. In the summer, the Hancheon Children's Water Playground opens to provide a safe space for children to play actively. Hancheon Sports Park is an important place woven into the daily lives of Yecheon residents as a site for rest, leisure, exercise, walking, and festivals.

Seoaksa, located on the mid-slope of Bongdeoksan, is a branch temple of Jikjisa, the main temple of the 8th district of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. According to a ridge beam inscription discovered during the restoration of the temple building in 1960, the temple was founded in 1701 (the 27th year of King Sukjong of Joseon), relocated in 1737 (the 13th year of King Yeongjo), and the temple building was constructed in 1761. The complex includes Wontongjeon Hall, two temple buildings, and an Iljumun gate. The Buddha statue inside the main Dharma hall, Wontongjeon, was made recently, while six hanging Buddhist paintings (taenghwa) are regarded as valuable cultural assets; among them, three were created in 1770 (the 45th year of King Yeongjo) and one in 1868 (the 5th year of King Gojong). The bronze bell inside the Dharma hall was cast in March 1933. Although it is not very old, it is a precious artifact that faithfully follows the bell styles of the Joseon Dynasty. At the temple entrance, the rock bears the inscription 'Yeonpadogyeoksan,' where Jang Hwa-sik (1853–1938), a late Joseon official, used to read scriptures.

Yecheon Hyanggyo was first established in 1398 (7th year of King Taejo of Joseon) in Hyeonsan, Yecheon-eup, and moved to its current location by the county governor Kim Gyeom in 1418 (18th year of King Taejong). It was repaired several times afterward, including in 1656 (7th year of King Hyojong) and 1658 (9th year of King Hyojong). It is located east of Daechang Middle and High Schools today. Originally, there were nine buildings including Pungyeongru, Jeongokcheong, Dongmu, Seomu, Dongjae, Seojae, and a two-story gatehouse, but currently only the Daeseongjeon (ritual hall), Myeongnyundang (educational hall), Jusa (kitchen), the outer gate Oesammun, and the inner gate Naesammun remain. In 2005, Ilsinjae and Jikbangjae, corresponding to the former Dongmu and Seomu, were restored; Ilsinjae stores ritual clothes and Jikbangjae stores ritual implements. After entering Oesammun and climbing the stairs, there is Myeongnyundang, a building with a hip-and-gable roof, five kan front and two kan side. Entering Naesammun behind Myeongnyundang is Daeseongjeon, a separate space with a gable roof, three kan front and three kan side. Daeseongjeon enshrines Confucius and 25 other sages, and ancestral rites are still performed there every spring and autumn.

Dongaksan Temple, recorded as Dongam (東庵), is located on the southern foothill of Naengjeongsan (冷井山). According to legend, its terrain resembles a crane, which led to the name Donghaksa. It is said that Uisang Dae-sa founded the temple in 671, but the exact date is unknown. However, roof tile fragments found suggest a temple existed from ancient times. The current buildings include a monks' hall in front and Bogwangjeon hall behind, built on March 28, 1934, with donations from believers. Due to severe deterioration, a wooden tile-roofed building with a front of three kan and sides of two kan was constructed on the right side of this building in 1983, also funded by believers. The nameplate Bogwangjeon was hung again, and a stone seated Vairocana Buddha statue was moved there and enshrined as the main deity.
