Gangchon in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do is a popular river resort area set along the Bukhangang where spring cherry blossoms and spectacular autumn foliage reflected in the wide clear river make it one of the most photographed seasonal landscape destinations in the Seoul metropolitan region, just 80 kilometers from the capital. The sulfated mineral spring water from the volcanic geological zone of the Taebaek region feeds spa facilities that complement the area's leisure attractions, which have grown with the opening of Legoland Korea on nearby Hajungdo island and the scenic Soyang river dam reservoir. Chuncheon's famous dakgalbi spicy stir-fried chicken — a dish so identified with the city that it has its own festival — and the remarkable Buddhist island monastery of Cheongpyeong-sa accessible by river ferry give a spa visit to Gangchon a pleasantly varied set of gastronomic and cultural dimensions in the Gangwon lake district.
