Begin with the riverside pines
Deuldeulgang Pine Grove Park in Nampyeong-eup, Naju, has a dirt walking path beneath pine trees along the Jiseokcheon stream, also called Deuldeulgang. In a September 2026 feature, the Korea Tourism Organization described it as a peaceful place to enjoy a riverside landscape.
Taksa Pavilion among the trees
Taksa Pavilion (탁사정) is said to have been established by scholar Yun Seon-gi during the reign of King Seonjo of Joseon. Its name evokes washing or cleansing with water. The origin story should not be taken as proof that every part of the structure visible today is original.
A musical memory beside the water
A monument here honors Naju-born composer Ahn Seong-hyeon (안성현). He is associated with the songs 'Eommaya Nunaya' (엄마야 누나야), set to a Kim Sowol poem, and 'Buyongsan' (부용산). It adds an unexpected music-history layer to the scenic walk.

Another side of Naju
