Why go

Yangpyeong Dumulmeori is a famous public scenic-landscape destination in Yangpyeong, Gyeonggi-do, set at the confluence point where the Namhangang and Bukhangang rivers meet to form the Han River — the historic geographic point that gives the area its identity ("Dumulmeori" literally means "head of two waters"). The site combines walking paths along the riverside, a famous old zelkova tree (Dumulmeori-tree, designated as a Natural Monument), viewing decks, and seasonal landscape changes that make the location particularly photogenic. The area is widely cited as one of the metropolitan area's most-photographed natural landscape destinations and is most striking at sunrise (when morning fog often rises off the rivers) and during the autumn-color season. Pairs naturally with broader Yangpyeong-area itineraries.
