About

Yi Sun-sin Park, a representative sacred site in Tongyeong, was created on the historical site where Hansandaecheop took place during the Imjin War. Established to honor the patriotic spirit of Isunsin Janggun, here you can see the statue of Isunsin Janggun gesturing toward the sea and Cheonjachongtong, along with various attractions such as turtle ship sculptures and topiaries. It boasts a naturally blessed environment where you can overlook the wide and blue waters off Tongyeong, and while walking along the well-maintained coastal promenade, you can reflect on its historical meaning and enjoy the refreshingly open ocean view.

In summer, you can enjoy swimming at the makeshift sandy beach, or in June, you can encounter the spectacular view of the blooming hydrangea colonies.
