Green Mountain Star Song: A Peaceful Retreat in the Heart of Nature
Experience the tranquility of camping in a deserted school in a mountain village in Donggye-myeon, Sunchang-gun, Jeollabuk-do, a place where nature and nostalgia meet. The Green Mountain Star Song, or 청산별곡, is a unique location where you can escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse yourself in the serene beauty of the Korean countryside.
This charming site is set up within a 3,800 square meter abandoned school left by the children of the mountain village. The schoolrooms have been equipped with heating and cooking facilities for indoor accommodation while a sprawling natural grass sports field provides the perfect spot for camping and outdoor activities. Whether it’s a family get-together, a reunion with old classmates, or a club meeting, this space offers a multitude of fun games and exercises.
Take a deep breath of fresh air in the quiet mountain village, either alone or with a loved one, and recharge your weary soul from the rigors of city life. Relive your childhood memories of a small rural school while camping and lodging in this quaint setting. The vast sports field is complemented by a 150-person indoor auditorium equipped with sound equipment, making it an ideal place for church retreats, alumni meetings, and other group gatherings.
When night falls in this peaceful mountain village, the city lights are replaced by countless stars twinkling in the sky. It’s a perfect place to recharge your body and soul, embracing the refreshing energy of nature. The nearby mountains, including Pung-ak Mountain, Yong-gul Mountain, Mu-ryang Mountain, and Moon-deok Peak, provide easy round-trip trails and trekking opportunities. You can also visit the recently opened suspension bridge at Chegye Mountain (Book Mountain), which is 90m high and 270m long, making it the largest in Korea.
