Nokdongseowon Confucian Academy (녹동서원)
218 Urok-gil, Gachang-myeon, Dalseong-gun, Daegu
Nokdongseowon Confucian Academy was built in 1789 in honor of General Kim Chung-seon (1571-1642), who contributed greatly to Korea's defense during the Imjin War (1592-1598). The academy was shut down in 1868, and reinstated in 1885. Then, in 1971, it was moved to its current location. Today, General Kim's tablet is enshrined in this hall, where a memorial service is held every March. Nearby attractions on the grounds of Nokdongseowon include Nokdongsa Temple, Sunguidang Shrine, Hyangyangmun Gate and memorial stones.
Nongae Shrine (Uiamsa Shrine) (논개사당(의암사))
393, Hannuri-ro, Jangsu-gun, Jeonbuk-do
Uiamsa Shrine was built to the memory of Chu Nongae, who sacrificed her life during the Imjin War (Japanese Invasion of Korea). In 1846, the Nongae-saeng-jang-hyang-su-myeong-bi monument was put up in praise of Nongae’s patriotism. In 1955, a shrine was built and named Uiamsa, which was then moved to the current location in 1974. Within the precincts of the shrine are a memorial stone, the portrait of Nongae by artist Kim Eun-ho, and three gates Woesammun, Naesammun and Chunguimun erected one after another. At the memorial hall, the existing possessions of Nongae and her husband General Choi Gyeong-hoe are on display. The annual Nongae Festival takes places on September 3rd by the lunar calendar, during which memorial services and cultural events are held to commemorate Nongae.
Nongam Head House (농암종택)
162-133 , Gasong-gil, Andong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do
This is the head house of Nongam I Hyeon-bo, located in Gasong-gil, Dosan-myeon, Andong-si.

The place where Nongam Head House was located was Buncheon Village, but Buncheon Village was submerged due to the construction of Andong Dam in 1976. Since then, the head house, shrine, and Geunggudang, which had all been relocated to various places in Andong, were moved to one place by I Seong-won, a descendant of the Yeongcheon I family. In 2007, Bungang Confucian Academy was rebuilt and is now called Bungang Village and open to the public.
Nonjinmul (논짓물)
253 Yeraehaean-ro, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do
Nonjinmul is a natural beach created as spring water flows into the sea, causing seawater and freshwater to meet. “Nonjinmul” means “just throwing away the water” because the spring water rises up close to the coast and cannot be used for agricultural or drinking water. Currently, a large amount of freshwater flows into the sea, and it has an embankment, pools, and showers, making it a popular swimming spot. In the summer, the Yerae Eco Village Experience Festival is held here, where visitors can enjoy various memorable experiences, such as catching olive flounder with one’s bare hands. Nonjinmul is part of the Jeju Olle Trail Course 8. Yerae Coastal Road, stretching out next to it, is an excellent driving course where one can enjoy the seascape. It is also great to stop by Nonjinmul while enjoying trekking or driving. However, the waves are strong outside the saltwater pool, so caution is needed to avoid accidents.
