If you go to Icheon, there is a rice culture exhibition hall where you can see the excellence of Icheon rice, famous as a gift from the Joseon Dynasty, and the various aspects of rice culture in Korea and around the world. For Icheon rice, the quality of the rice has been improved by selecting the Chucheong variety, which has transparent rice grains and a glossy finish, and meticulously managed not only production and harvesting, but also storage. The pride of the Rice Culture Exhibition Hall is that you can taste Icheon rice produced through this process by immediately polishing it. If you apply in advance, you can experience cooking rice in a cauldron with freshly milled rice. The Icheon Agricultural Theme Park, where the Rice Culture Exhibition Hall is located, was created to provide opportunities for city residents to experience the traditional culture of rural areas and to promote the excellence of agricultural products in Icheon. Icheon, the city of rice, is also famous for ceramics. Serapia, where you can see, enjoy, and experience pottery from Korea and around the world, Seolbong Park, where pottery-related festivals were held every year until last year, and Sagimakgol Pottery Village, which has workshops and stores of pottery craftsmen, are also worth stopping by on your itinerary in Icheon.
