Jecheon (제천, 堤川市) is a district in North Chungcheong in South Korea. Jecheon is a city where beautiful nature is in harmony and historic temples are located. It is also an area where you can find peace outside of your daily life, enjoying temples and natural scenery located in calm mountains.

It is also called the center of transportation and logistics because it is located in the center of the inland of the central part of the Korean Peninsula. It is the area where Cheongpungho Lake, an inland sea with beautiful mountains and scenery in the direct sunlight from the mountain range, is located.

Understand

[edit]

It has the third largest population in North Chungcheong Province. It is the northernmost city in the province.

Along with the neighboring regions Danyang-gun and Yeongwol-gun, it has grown into a cement industrial city, and provides exceeds half of the nation's cement production. It also serves as a hub for the mining industry. As the mining industry declines, the industrial structure is being reorganized mainly in the service and tourism industries, and it is being promoted as a "natural healing city" and a "Korean medicine city" based on the three major cities of Yakryeong-si and Hwanggi production base nationwide.

History

[edit]

During the Joseon Dynasty, Cheongpung-myeon was famous. Cheongpung-myeon was known for not much in fact, but for the fact that a single person was born. As a result, there are few historical sites. If so, there are Uirimji, cultural assets in Cheongpung-myeon, cultural assets related to righteous army at the end of the Joseon Dynasty, Baeronseongji, the site of Korea's first Catholic seminary and the stronghold of Catholicism such as Father Choi Yang-up's missionary work, and Buddhist art majors are known for their works including Jeongbangsa Temple, which was built during the Unified Silla Dynasty in Kumsusan Mountain, Lee Hyeongseok Pagoda such as the Nine-story Stone Pagoda of Sasa Temple at the Bin Shrine site of Mt. Wolak, which was designated as a treasure, Maae Seokbul at Deokjusa Temple in Wolaksan Mountain, and Mojeon Stone Pagoda, which was built during the Shilla Dynasty, which is located in front of Jangraksa Temple.

At first, the name Naeje-gun was used. The name Jecheon means the inner part of the bank, and in the Goryeo Dynasty, it was called Jeju because it was called the village of the bank, but in the Joseon Dynasty, the name was changed from Jeju to Jecheon as Taejong, the third king, gave the order to change it to Cheon or Mountain, respectively, for some villages built as the main state. The name Jecheon was called at this time, and this continued during the Korean Empire, and in 1980, when Jecheon-eup was separated into Jecheon-si, the remaining area was changed to 堤, and in 1991, it was returned to Jecheon-gun again, and in 1995, Jecheon-gun was integrated and the city and county of Jecheon have been integrated.
