Seonchang on Uido Island, Sinan

Seonchang, the traditional landing on Uido Island, Sinan, is the only traditional harbour facility in Korea to survive in an almost completely intact form; a record in the form of a stone monument documenting its repair in 1745, during the Joseon period, still remains, making it a rare maritime heritage site that has continued to be used ever since. Because its date is precisely recorded and its form is relatively well preserved, it has symbolic value in showing the living culture of island people.
