- Yeosu Maritime Cable Car
- Yeosu Marine Cable Car is a marine cable car that connects Dolsan (island) and Jasan (land) by passing over the sea. It consists of a crystal cabin and a regular cabin. The crystal cabin has a transparent floor that allows you to see the sea beneath your feet, providing wide-open visual enjoyment and an exhilarating thrill.
- Dolsan Park
- Dolsan Park is located opposite Dolsan Bridge and was created in 1987 on a site of approximately 87,000 pyeong. In the park, the set filming site for the 2004 SBS morning drama “Choice” was set up and is visited by many tourists. Part of the set was converted into a traditional tea house, so the scenery of drinking tea while looking at Dolsan Bridge is exquisite. The view from the park's viewpoint is also spectacular, including the sunset over Dolsandaegyo Bridge, the night view of Dolsandaegyo Bridge, the night view of the marine park encompassing Jungang-dong and Jonghwa-dong in Yeosu, and the night view of Janggun Island. At the central site, various materials related to the Samyeo integration in 1994 will be stored in a time capsule and will be released to the public 100 years later.
