Constructed in 1972 using Korea's first suspension bridge method, the Gangchon Suspension Bridge was originally named Deungseon-gyo Bridge and served as a symbol of Gangchon and a sanctuary of youth. It enjoyed great popularity as an MT and date spot for college students in the 1970s and 80s, but suffered the pain of being demolished due to safety issues. After 30 years, in 2015, it was reopened as part of the Gyeongchun Line abandoned railway tourism resource project to restore its old reputation and reproduce its past appearance.
Around the bridge, old photos of Gangchon and sculptures are exhibited, making it a place with history and stories that recalls the memories and romance of the 7080 generation and provides a special experience for the new generation.
