A Hwangpo sailboat quietly floats on the Imjingang River moving with the wind with its broad and yellow sail stretched out. Hop on a Hwangpo sailboat, which was a major means of transportation in the Joseon Dynasty, and enjoy the beauty of the red cliffs of Imjingang for about 45 minutes from Duji-ri to Jajang-ri. Paju Hwangpo Sailboat has fully recreated the original form from the Joseon Period and presents tourists with the excitement of traveling back in time. Once you board a Hwangpo sailboat and depart from Duji Quay, you will be able to immerse yourselves into the gorgeous landscape of Imjingang, from the red cliffs in Wondang-ri and Horogoruseong Fortress to Gorangpo Yeoulmok, where civilian access was restricted for several decades.
