Donghae Mureung Health Forest

Located at the entrance of Mureung Valley, this center for the prevention and management of environmental diseases is directly operated by Donghae City. Environmental diseases refer to illnesses caused by environmental factors such as atopic dermatitis, asthma, and allergic rhinitis. On a site of approximately 24,000㎡, it features eco-friendly healing accommodation buildings, theme experience rooms, health counseling rooms, heat therapy rooms, and a healthy natural food restaurant. The accommodation buildings, constructed with eco-friendly materials such as red clay and cypress wood, provide a healthy sleeping environment.<br />The theme experience rooms are jjimjilbangs (Korean saunas) utilizing natural materials like stone, clay, and salt. Experience rooms such as the white sericite jjimjilbang, which emits far-infrared rays and natural negative ions, the red clay jjimjilbang effective for removing toxins from the body, and the salt cave where nano salt particles cleanse the respiratory system help improve environmental diseases. In the heat therapy room, you lie on a capsule-shaped bed to enhance blood circulation through heat. A resident nurse provides free health counseling based on basic examinations. Even without staying overnight, you can participate in crafting experiences using natural materials, theme experience rooms, health counseling, and healthy natural food experiences. The Oseonnyeotang, operated during the summer, is a nature-friendly water playground made using water from Mureung Valley.
