The walls of this village are mainly mud-stone walls that are made by embedding stones in soil compaction. Most of the roads inside the village are composed of straight lines and give us the impression of good order. The roads along the stone walls, which make the natural traffic line, play the great role of drawing out the typical atmosphere of the village of nobility, and produce a diverse and cozy atmosphere according to the changes of the four seasons. This has the value as a cultural material. The locals built this cultural heritage on their own, creating unique scenery with Korea’s traditional beauty.
