Tongcheon

T'ongch'ŏn lies on the eastern coast of Korea, where mountains meet the sea. Its shore includes the remarkable stone formations of Ch'ongsŏkchŏng, counted among the eight celebrated views of Kwandong. Old fortress sites dot the district, including the remains of the walled town. The coastal route links T'ongch'ŏn with the lands north toward Wŏnsan and south toward Kangnŭng.
