청풍은 자연경관이 수려하고 문물이 번성했던 곳으로 많은 문화 유적을 갖고 있었으나 충주댐 건설로 청풍면 후산리, 황석리, 수산면 지곡리에 있던 마을이 문화재와 함께 수몰될 위기에 있었다. 충청북도청에서는 1983년부터 3년간 수몰 지역의 문화재를 원형대로 현재 위치에 이전, 복원해 단지를 조성했다.

Cheongpung Lake Cable Car is a famous spot in Jecheon where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Cheongpung Lake. It operates a round-trip 2.3km route from Multaeri in Cheongpung-myeon to the summit of Bibongsan. Traveling at an average speed of 5m/s, it takes about 10 minutes to reach the peak, which is named after a phoenix bird guarding its eggs and taking flight. Bibongsan, located in the center of Cheongpung Lake at an altitude of 531m, offers a spectacular view reminiscent of a sea of countless islands from the summit. It is the first cable car in Korea to operate to the summit, allowing children and elderly visitors to comfortably enjoy the scenic beauty of Cheongpung Lake by cable car.

Jeongbangsa Temple, a branch temple of Beopjusa of the Jogye Order located on the ridge of Sinseonbong at the foot of Geumsusan Mountain at an elevation of 1,016m, is a thousand-year-old temple said to have been founded by Uisangdaesa in the Silla period. From the temple, visitors can enjoy views of Cheongpung Lake and the surrounding mountains, evoking a fairyland-like scenery and a sense of nature's wonder. A rock cliff covers one-third of the temple's roof, whose grandeur and unique appearance inspire awe at the greatness of nature. Within the temple grounds are the main hall, monks' quarters, and the Hyeonhye Gate. The main hall, built in 1825, is a wooden tile-roofed building with 12 kan, and the monks' quarters have 5 kan. The Hyeonhye Gate, also called Iljumun, is the temple's main gate and is a one-kan wooden gate. Inside the main hall is a standing wooden Avalokitesvara (Gwaneumbosal) statue, the principal Buddha, measuring 60cm in height and 30cm shoulder width, with a painting behind it. The wooden Avalokitesvara statue and relics enshrined inside Jeongbangsa's main hall are typical examples of mid-Joseon period bodhisattva statues.
