Korea / Hyangsan Town

 

Hyangsan is a modern town which has become a recreation centre for famous Mt. Myohyang. It is near the Chongchon River. The town's architectural style is unique. The roofs of the buildings, such as schools, hospitals, hotels, shops and houses, are in the traditional style. The brown and blue tiles of 2-3-storeyed buildings are attractive. Its industries produce medical instruments and souvenirs. There are more than 10 factories, including the Myohyangsan Medical Appliances Factory. The Chongchon River, which has a barrage, offers good places for recreation. The International Friendship Exhibition stands by the Myohyang Stream. It is a monumental building which demonstrates the acme of our traditional architecture. In Hyangsan there are many historic relics and sufficient welfare establishments, including the Hyangsan Hotel, for tourists.
