There are many acres of chestnut farms along this little stream near the city of Gongju, Korea. This area accounts for about 12% of the chestnut production in the country. There is an annual Chestnut Festival here in the fall.

This tourist oriented place offers chestnut picking in the fall, and there is lodging here as well. There is a waterwheel located at the end of this pedestrian suspension bridge that crosses a small stream connecting the village to the main road, although there is also road access. The waterwheel is situated in a small pond where the water then runs down into the natural stream.
