Bonghwa Daksil Village | 景点信息 | K-Travel Mate

According to the theory of pungsu (geomancy), Daksil Village is named for its shape resembling a golden rooster sitting on its eggs, called Geumgye Poranhyeong. This place was where Chungjae lived in seclusion, and his descendants have formed a clan village for 500 years. Related treasures such as Cheongamjeong, Samgye Seowon, Chungjae Diary, Geunsarok, rare books, and old documents are preserved in the Chungjae Relics Museum. The surrounding mountains, dense pine forests, large rocks, and clean water make it an ideal spot for family outings. Mid-Joseon scholar Lee Jung-hwan praised it as one of Korea's top scenic spots in his book Taekriji. In Seokcheon Valley, there is Seokcheon Jeongsa, built by Chungjae Kwon Beol's eldest son Cheongam Kwon Dong-bo to commemorate his father's virtues. Climbing from Seokcheon Valley to Daksil Village, there are the remains of Chungjae Kwon Beol, and this area is designated as Historic and Scenic Site No. 3. (Source: Bonghwa County Office)
