This is a popular travel destination, considered one of the Eight Scenic Views of Miryang. The majestic cluster of fringe trees that lines the reservoir boasts a picturesque landscape throughout all four seasons. The best time to visit Wiyangji Pond is in the spring when the fringe tree blossoms are in full bloom, looking as if they are covered in white snow. On a clear day, the reflection of the fringe trees on the pond is as beautiful as a watercolor painting.
