Destination briefing
Why travelers stop here
This place is beloved by travelers for its excellent scenery, with Samaksan Mountain and Uiamho Lake harmonizing in the surrounding area. The Mermaid Statue was a practice piece by Lee Gil-jong, an honorary professor at Chuncheon National University of Education who was a teacher at Chuncheon High School at the time, and his students in 1971. However, as it aged over 40 years, with discoloration and other deterioration, it was renovated into a bronze sculpture in 2013. The Mermaid Statue is located low beyond the roadway, making it easy to pass by, so visitors should be careful.
