Two kilometers west from Sangcho-ri and 3.5 kilometers further along a deep gorge to the north,
one finds Juheulgwan-mun (gate), the first entrance gate to the North Gyeongsang area. The gate
was built in 1708, during the reign of King Sukjong of the Joseon Dynasty. Jogok-gwan
(gate), the second entrance, is located three kilometers from the first entrance. The third entrance, called
Joryeong-gwan (gate), is located 3.5 kilometers past that. These three entrances,
collectively designated as Historic Site #147, are called the Mungyeong Samgwan-mun
(3 Entrance Gates of Mungyeong) and are all located on Juheul-san (1,106 meters). In addition to the
breathtaking scenery of rugged valleys leading to the entrances, the mountain boasts many tourist attractions,
such as Yeogung Waterfall and Hyeguk-sa.
