Not far from Chungjuho is this shrine on a hilltop, whose name means "the hill where the gayageum was played." This is where the legendary musician Ureuk used to play his gayageum during the reign of Shilla King Jinheung. A small hill, called Daemunsan, overlooks the waters of the Han River below. Outdoor concerts are held here in the summer.
