Sambong Spring was originally known as Silron Spring during the Joseon Dynasty but later it was given its current name 'Sambong(three peaks)' because it is situated in the middle of Gachil Peak, Sasam Peak and Eungbok Mountain. Within the nation, it has excellent water quality which was chosen as the nation's top 100 specialty because the water contains 15 types of medicinal ingredients. It is known to be effective for anemia, diabetes, neuralgia and stomach disorder so many people from around the nation come to visit.
