The area around the pagoda was made into a sculpture park, with 26 art pieces from artists all over the country.

Its taste is so well-known that visitors from other cities come to this place just to get the soup as a takeout. The management is also known for their hearty approach to business, with extra sundae, intestines, or side dishes being a common addition to the flavors of Chungju’s tradition. You can find the store within the Sundae and Mandu Alley.
