The reservoir within Dunjeon Valley, nestled among high mountains and clear waters, is home to various freshwater fish such as mountain trout, attracting many visitors who come to enjoy fishing. Dunjeon Valley also offers various tourist attractions to enjoy together, including the Three-Story Stone Pagoda at Jinjeonsa Temple Site, the Stupa of Jinjeonsa Temple, Yeongheolsa Temple, Yangyang Hyanggyo, Yangyang Namdaecheon Stream, and Naksansa Temple. The Three-Story Stone Pagoda at Jinjeonsa Temple Site, designated as a National Treasure, is a 5-meter-high granite pagoda built during the reign of King Gyeongae in the late Silla period. Its carving techniques are very delicate and excellent, showcasing the typical stone pagoda style of the Unified Silla period.
