Hwajinpo is the largest lagoon area in South Korea, formed by the development of a spit near Hwajinpo beach that blocked the entrance of the bay. A lagoon is a landform developed when a bay is formed by the post-glacial sea level rise flooding the coast, and its entrance is blocked by a sandbar or spit. This landform represents the Neogene Quaternary period, characterized by climate change. The lagoon also serves as an important ecological corridor connecting the sea and land. Frequent exchanges between freshwater and seawater create a unique natural environment where marine and freshwater organisms coexist, giving it high conservation value. Hwajinpo, shaped like the number 8, is divided into South Lake and North Lake, with South Lake being larger and the waterway to the sea located in North Lake. The name Hwajinpo comes from the abundance of sea buckthorn around the lake. The area is also widely known as the filming site of the final scene of the popular drama 'Autumn Fairy Tale' aired about ten years ago. Nearby tourist attractions include the Kim Il-sung villa, the Syngman Rhee villa, and the Lee Ki-bung villa.

This villa is located overlooking Hwajinpo in Hwapo-ri, Geojin-eup, Goseong-gun, Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, and is commonly called the 'Kim Il-sung Villa.' It was built in 1938 by German H. Weber and was used as a summer retreat from 1948 to 1950 by Kim Il-sung along with his wife Kim Jong-suk, son Kim Jong-il, and daughter Kim Kyong-hui. It is a stone building with one basement floor and two above-ground floors. The army demolished and rebuilt the building in 1964 and repaired it in 1995 for use as a soldiers' rest facility. Inside, exhibits related to the Korean War and North Korea are displayed. Along with the Lee Seung-man Villa and Lee Ki-bung Villa about 1 km away, it forms a historical security exhibition center.

강원도 고성군 화진포에는 세 명의 옛정치인의 별장이 나란히 놓여있다. 김일성 별장, 이승만 별장, 이기붕 별장. 이승만 별장은 대한민국 초대 대통령인 이승만이 머물렀던 곳으로 1954년에 신축된 뒤 1061년에 폐허가 되었다가 1999년 전시관으로 복원되었다. 소박하고 단출하지만 별장 안에서 밖을 바라보면 주변의 울창한 송림과 한데 어우러진 화진포의 두 개의 호수가 한눈에 보이는 까닭에 화진포의 세 별장 중 가장 경치가 뛰어나다는 평을 받고 있다.

Standing on the 70m high Unification Observatory where the Military Demarcation Line and Southern Limit Line meet, you can see Guseonbong and Haegumgang of Geumgangsan nearby, and on clear days, Oknyubong, Chaehabong, and Ilchulbong are visible. The frontline outpost facing the Demilitarized Zone fence below gives a sense of the tension between South and North Korea. This is a representative tourist site in Goseong visited by over 1.5 million tourists annually, featuring religious facilities such as a statue of the Virgin Mary, Maitreya Buddha statue, and Jeonjin Iron Tower for displaced persons longing for the mountains and families left behind in the North and those praying for reunification, as well as security education exhibits like armored vehicles, tanks, and airplanes. The Donghae Line inter-Korean connecting road, opened in December 2004, enables views of the land route tours to Geumgangsan.
