The Gwiae Traditional House is a 200-year-old aristocrat’s residence consisting of various hanok structures, a pavilion, a pond, and a shrine set amid its expansive grounds. Located in Yeongcheon Byeolbyeol Misulmaul (Star Art Village) where modern artworks can be seen here and there, the house too is surrounded by various artworks as well as the beautiful natural environment of Yeongcheon, including Bohyeonsan Mountain, Palgongsan Mountain, Unjuhan Recreational Forest, and Saryongsan Mountain. Thanks to the Art Village project, the village has acquired a distinguished charm all its own by combining the antique beauty of traditional houses with modern art and public design. The village is full of attractions as well as traditional structures, including Pungyeongjeong Pavilion, which was built to commemorate the life of Gwon Eung-do, an eminent Confucian scholar of Joseon, and the Cian Art Museum, which established in a closed-down school and has three exhibition rooms, an outdoor sculpture park, and an art shop.
Belonging to the descendants of Jo Geuk-seung (1803∼1877), a Confucian scholar of the late Joseon period, the Gwiae Traditional House comprises a sarangchae (detached building), an anchae (women’s quarters), a daemunchae (building next to the gate), and Gwiaejeong Pavilion (Gyeongbuk Provincial Cultural Heritage No. 339), which has double-layered eaves and a half-hipped roof, and measures four kan (a unit of measurement referring to the distance between two columns) at the front and three kan at the sides. There is also a hexagonal pavilion connected with a bridge and a lotus pond. The house also has four installation artworks such as a sculpture of a child and a puppy getting stars, and a turtle sculpture with Lee Geum-hong’s calligraphy.
Opened as a hanok stay in 2013, the house has 8 guestrooms and offers a variety of traditional games such as Tuho (Arrow-throwing), Neolttwigi (Korean see-saw game), and Jegichagi (Korean shuttlecock game) in the courtyard.

Eunhaesa Temple, located on Palgongsan Mountain in Yeongcheon city, Gyeongsangbuk-do, is one of two major temples on the mountain along with Donghwasa Temple.
The temple was founded by Monk Hyecheol and was given the name Haeansa Temple in the first year of King Heondeok’s reign during the Silla Kingdom (AD 809), but was moved to the current site in the Joseon dynasty in 1546 (the first year of King Myeongjong). Upon its relocation, King Injong of Joseon dynasty was commemorated with a new lecture hall along with a memorial stone plaque where the king's umbilical cord was buried and sealed. It was then when the temple was also given its current name, Eunhaesa Temple.
The temple houses the main shrine, Bohwaru pavilion, Seolseondan Hall, Shimgeondang Hall, eight small hermitages, as well as Baegeungam Temple, Jungangam Temple, and a professional Buddhist education institution, the Eunhaesa Buddhist University.

Orijangnim Forest is approximately 2 kilometers long, the same length as the Korean measurement of five ri (O-ri). It is also called Jacheon Forest due to its location near Jacheon-ri. The forest was split into two parts after a national roadway was built through the forest. Later, much of the forest was lost due to additional building construction, road expansion, and typhoon. Only some areas in front of Jacheon Village retain the old ambience.
Orijangnim Forest was established to block the strong winds from entering the village, as well as provide bank protection and flood prevention. It is comprised of 280 trees from 12 different species including oriental oaks.
