current weather information Jinju has many historical remains showing the importance of this area. Ancient Jinju Fortress makes an interesting sightseeing trip. Built during the Goryeo Dynasty, it was the scene of a major battle during the Japanese invasion of 1592-93, with an estimated 70,000 Koreans losing their lives.

About 5 km west of the city, the resort area of Jinyangho is built around the lake created by the Namgang Dam.

It also serves as a good base camp for exploring the southeastern part of Jiri-san National Park, and many hikers constantly pass through Jinju.
