Morning light slices the Hantan River canyon as travelers step onto a bridge that splits like a forked path. The Y‑Shaped Suspension Bridge, stretching roughly 410 meters above the gorge, gives a clear, open view of rock walls and the river below—wind and river currents seeming to dare you to look down. Later, lavender and rosemary fields at Herb Island soften the day with scent and shade; here the air moves like a slow exhale, carrying tiny leaves and petals between cafes and themed gardens.
