About

About
This is the place where the queen of King Munmu of the Silla Dynasty (Queen Ja-ui) was buried under a rock island, saying that she would become a dragon that would protect the country even after death. The scenery of the rocks facing the East Sea is beautiful, so it is quite famous as a major tourist attraction in Ulsan. Like Oryukdo in Busan, it is an island that fell into the sea close to the land, but it is connected to the bridge and functions as a walking trail. The Ulgi Lighthouse, Daewangam, Yonggul, Tanggeonam, and other strangely shaped rocks, as well as 15,000 beautiful pine trees that are over 100 years old, come together to form a rest area that symbolizes Ulsan. In particular, Daewangam, also called Yongchuam or Daengbawi, has a legend that the queen of King Munmu of the Silla Dynasty was buried under a rock island, saying that she would become a patriotic dragon and protect the country even after death. It is connected to the rocks on the land by an iron bridge. It is famous for the pine forest and whale jawbone sculptures that spread out from the entrance, and in addition to Daewangam, there are other strangely shaped rocks on the beach, such as Namgeun Rock, Tanggeon Rock, Suicide Rock, Cheonyo Peak, and Yonggul.
