If you desire to enjoy a day in the South Korean countryside, let's explore the Pocheon Art Valley and visit nearby attractions including Herb Island and the local apple orchards. 

• Introduction
  Pocheon Art Valley was a former granite quarry transformed into a culture and arts space. The transformation was the outcome of Korea's first environment restoration project led by the city of Pocheon. As of now, more than 1 million tourists visit this place every year. It's also a popular culture and art complex loved by local residents, with various programs including special exhibitions, as well as weekend and special performances. Nearby are active quarry sites for digging up unique granite found only within the area, referred to as Pocheonseok rocks.
