Mungyeong Omija Theme Tunnel문경오미자테마터널

At a glance

Coal trains once ran through Seokhyeon Tunnel; today its 540 m are a walk-through attraction beneath the historic Gomosanseong fortress, near Jinnam Gyoban, a scenic stretch of the Yeonggang River. Inside you pass a glittering starlight tunnel, trick-art walls built on optical illusions, and displays and shops for Mungyeong's specialty, omija (five-flavor berry), alongside local pottery. The tunnel holds at about 15–18°C all year, so it feels cool in summer and mild in winter.
