About Gunsan and Saemangeum<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Gunsan is the historical site of Jinpodaecheop, the grounds of our life, and a valuable inheritance to be left to our descendants. In the central West Sea of harmony among fertile fields, rich sea, and quiet mountains, Gunsan is both a hi-tech industrial city and an international trading port. You can find graceful scenery of 63 inhabited and uninhabited islands after sailing 46km from the inner harbor. Among the isles, Seon-yu Isle has been long recognized as one of the Seon-yu Eight Famous Spots which are renowned for their natural beauty.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Gogunsan Island District is located 50 kilometers to the southwest of Gunsan. The district of islands makes for such a breath-taking scene that it is affectionately known as the \u2018Star Above the Lake.\u2019 Sinsido, one of the most beautiful islands in the district, is located at the center of the Saemangeum Sea Dike connecting Gunsan and Buan.<\/p>\n
