Woryeondae Pavilion and Surroundings, Miryang

Woryeondae Pavilion and its surroundings in Miryang originate from the retirement of the Joseon civil official Yi Tae (pen name Woryeon, 1483–1536), who, during the reign of King Jungjong, stepped down from office and built Ssanggyeongdang Hall and Woryeondae Pavilion. After its founding the complex was destroyed by fire during the Japanese invasions of 1592–1598, but Ssanggyeongdang Hall was restored in 1697, the twenty-third year of King Sukjong, and Woryeondae Pavilion was restored in 1866, the third year of Emperor Gojong, by Yi Jong-sul, Yi Tae's eleventh-generation descendant. Woryeondae Pavilion and its surroundings in Miryang form a scenic site where the riverside view seen from the pavilion is outstanding, and which holds diverse cultural-landscape features, including inscriptions carved into the rocks and the Twelve Scenic Views of Woryeondae.
