Jeongchiam Hermitage – A Cliffside Sanctuary of Peace Perched dramatically on the side of a sheer cliff, Jeongchiam Hermitage is one of Sancheong’s most breathtaking hidden gems. As you climb the peaceful forest path and reach the hermitage, you’re greeted by sweeping views of misty mountains and endless valleys—an unforgettable panorama that instantly calms the mind. Jeongchiam is known as a place where monks have sought enlightenment for centuries.

This mountaintop sanctuary is perfect for wellness travelers seeking quiet reflection, meditation, and a deep connection with nature. Whether you enjoy a guided meditation session, simple breathing exercises, or a moment of silent appreciation, Jeongchiam offers a rare balance of spiritual energy and natural beauty.
