Muju Gucheondong Tourist Special Zone is a tourist area around the Muju Gucheondong valley and Deogyusan Mountain. It includes the Deogyusan National Park Management Office and various facilities for tourists grouped together, such as a terminal, parking lots, accommodations, entertainment venues, restaurants, and various shops forming a district. The Muju Gucheondong valley is surrounded by lush forests, and its clear waters are refreshingly cool, making it a popular summer escape crowded with visitors. Deogyusan, known as a famous mountain, is renowned for its autumn foliage and winter snow scenery, attracting many tourists annually. Nearby, the National Taekwondo Center showcases cultural tourism beyond natural sightseeing, and Muju Deogyusan Resort offers a variety of leisure sports.

Muju Meoru Wine Cave was originally used as a tunnel for excavation work during the construction of the Muju Pumped Storage Power Plant (April 1988 to May 1995). To give hope and pride to meoru grape farmers, Muju-gun leased and remodeled it in 2007, leading to its current state. The tunnel, which blocks light and maintains a consistent temperature, has become an ideal wine aging and storage cellar. Wine made from Muju-gun’s mountain meoru is aged, stored, and sold here, offering visitors a special experience. The wine foot bath, which relaxes body and mind, is popular with travelers.

During the Japanese invasions of Korea (Imjin War), the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, except those stored at Jeonju Sago, were lost. To restore them, three sets of the annals from King Taejo to King Myeongjong were reprinted and combined with the original Jeonju copies and corrected prints to create five sets in total, which were stored at Chunchugwan, Manisan, Taebaeksan, Myohyangsan, and Odaesan respectively. In 1641 (the 19th year of King Injo), Seonwonjeon was built here to store the Seonwonroks, making Jeoksangsansa a fully functioning archival site. Thirty-four volumes of the Joseon Wangjo Sillok copies (27 volumes representing each reign and 7 volumes related to Muju) and five volumes of the royal genealogy Seonwonrok copies were produced and kept here. Twenty-two exhibition panels detail the process of making, compiling, and transferring the annals. Cultural tourism interpreters from Muju County Office provide easy-to-understand explanations about the historical value of Jeoksangsansa and the Joseon Wangjo Sillok, making it a must-visit tourist destination, especially for family tourists with students.
