Chungcheong Province is also called Hoseo Province because it is located west of the lake, and the lake referred to here is Uirimji. Uirimji is an old and famous reservoir. A North Chungcheong Province monument, Uirimji was built during the Three Kingdoms Period and was originally called Imji. Legend has it that during the reign of King Jinheung of Silla, the music saint Ureuk built a dam by blocking a stream. Another story goes that 700 years later, the county magistrate Park Ui-rim rebuilt it to make it more solid. With a lakeside circumference of 1.8 km, a full water surface area of 151,470 m2, a reservoir of 6,611,891 m2, and a depth of 8-13 m, Uirimji serves as a massive reservoir, irrigating 289.4 jeongbo of farmland. Along with Byeokgolje in Gimje and Susanje in Miryang, this is one of the irrigation facilities of the Three Kingdoms Period. Its earthenware-built water conduits serve as valuable resources for studying agricultural techniques of the time. Today, it is a scenic spot in the Jecheon region. Surrounding the lake are Yeonghojeong Pavilion, built in 1807 (the seventh year of King Sunjo's reign), Gyeonghoru Pavilion, built in 1948, and hundreds of-year-old pine and weeping willow trees, as well as a 30-meter-tall natural waterfall, adding to the scenic beauty.
