Dopiansa has preserved Buddhist faith for centuries and is a site of high historical value. The temple’s setting amid natural scenery leaves a deep impression on visitors.

Jiktang Waterfall (直湯瀑布) is a waterfall located on the main stream of the Hantan River, formed on a flat basalt surface. Unlike other waterfalls in Korea, it spreads widely along the river surface. The waterfall formed as water has flowed over layered basalt lava flows for a long time, causing weathering and erosion along the basalt columnar joints to create a stepped waterfall shape. Although its height is only about 3 meters, its width is approximately 80 meters. The rocks comprising Jiktang Waterfall are basalt formed in the Quaternary period of the Cenozoic era, estimated to have formed between 540,000 and 120,000 years ago. This rock is part of the Cheorwon lava plateau basalt, created when lava rose along a weak point in the Chugaryeong structural trough between Seoul and Wonsan and then solidified.
