Eonyang Alps Market Town is a medium-sized market established in 1915, held on days ending in 2 and 7 of each month. In the past, it was called the “Seven Towns Market” because products from seven nearby areas, including Cheongdo, Dongnae, Yangsan, Gyeongju, Yeongcheon, and Ulsan, were gathered here. About 40 years ago, the market took its current form and now operates as a general market.
