Boryeong City in South Chungcheong Province opened the unique summer destination "Boryeong Cold Air Bathhouse" on June 27 and will operate it for 66 days until August 31.


The Boryeong Cold Air Bathhouse is a natural cooling experience facility that utilizes cold air blowing out from mine tunnels extending hundreds of meters underground.


Visitors can walk through a simulated tunnel about 200 meters long and directly experience the refreshing air, which maintains an average temperature of 10 to 15 degrees Celsius.


Thanks to a temperature difference of up to nearly 20 degrees Celsius compared to the outside, visitors can dramatically feel the difference in perceived temperature during the summer, making the facility highly popular every year.


This year, in particular, a variety of attractions such as busking performances by Boryeong citizens and rural experience events have been prepared to satisfy the senses of family visitors.


At the local agricultural product market near the cold air bathhouse, visitors can also purchase regional specialties such as button mushrooms cultivated using the cold air, all at affordable prices.


Mayor Kim Dongil stated, "We expect many tourists to visit Boryeong this summer to escape the heat," and added, "We will do our utmost to ensure that all visitors can enjoy the cold air bathhouse in a comfortable and refreshing environment."



The cold air bathhouse is located at 190 Naengpungyokjang-gil, Cheongra-myeon, Boryeong City. From downtown Boryeong, take National Road No. 36 toward Cheongyang and Daejeon, turn right at the intersection in front of Cheongbo Elementary School, and continue for about 2 kilometers.
