A place where tradition breathes
Due to its locational benefit(northern part of Mt. Sorak, 500meters above sea level), the water and air is refreshing in addition to the spectacular view of nature making this place a best choice to stay for some time.
We have applied the traditonal Korean way of heating system which is called ¡®Ondol' (similar to the ancient Rome's hypocaust) for the entire housing on our village and all the buildings are made of natural material like loess, pine tree and stones from Mt. Sorak.
We also have added various Korean herbal medicines like In-jin, Sook, Chun-kung, Song-jin on every floor as a final touch. You can get aromatheraputic effect from them in addition to the benefit of far-infrared radiation from the loess. A study has found that these features are benefical to the active blood circulation, healing neuralgia, making smooth skin, reducing the stress and eliminating the hangover.
