Korean name: 자규루 및 관풍헌
Gangwon
Jagyuru Pavilion and Gwanpungheon Hall in Yeongwol include a Joseon-era government office building and a pavilion linked to King Danjong, who is said to have written poems here during his exile.
About
Gwanpungheon Hall was used as a magistrate’s office to handle local affairs during the Joseon Dynasty. The site consists of an annex and a 3x3 kan building (a traditional Korean structural unit). Currently, it serves as a mission center for the Bodeoksa Temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism.
About 50 meters away from the hall is Jagyuru Pavilion, where King Danjong (r. 1452–1455) stayed during his exile after losing the throne to King Sejo (r. 1455–1468). It is said that Danjong frequently visited this pavilion to write poetry known as jagyu poetry.
