Built in 1973, the Soyang Dam is the largest rock-filled dam in Asia. Although it used to be a beautiful area for boating, the lowered water level, recent floods, and erosion have caused the surrounding hills to lose much of their former beauty. The valleys around the lake are well known for smelt fishing in the winter.
