📍 50-3, Dongmakdong-gil, Yanggu-gun, Gangwon-do
Introduction
Punch Bowl is a highland basin situated 400-500 meters above sea level in Yanggu-gun, Gangwon-do. The name comes from the basin's resemblance to a large punch bowl. The village has around 1,700 residents, and is the only town that is located inside the Civilian Access Control Line. Along with the nearby Daeamsan Mountain, Punch Bowl was once a ferocious battlefield during the Korean War. Several monuments were erected in memory of the deceased souls. Since the war, civilian access has been limited, allowing the natural environment in the area to recover. Rare flora and fauna reside in the area, and on top of Daeamsan Mountain is Yongneup Swamp (Natural Monument No. 246), Korea's one and only high moor and time-honored treasure trove for the ecosystem.
