The Sancheong Herbal Medicinal Festival is a celebration for those interested in traditional herbal medicine. Donguibogam (Principles and Practice of Eastern Medicine) and its author, Heo Jun, are highly regarded in Korean medicine. Sancheong, where Heo Jun studied, is home to Jirisan Mountain, which is often seen as a treasure trove by Korean medicine doctors due to being a habitat of over 1,000 species of medicinal herbs. The festival features Korean medicine clinics offering treatments like acupuncture, while the festival square is transformed into an herbal garden with photo zones, tea drinking spots, spaces for making herbal flower pots, and exhibitions and sales of herbal flower pot goods. Visitors can also participate in making herbal sweet rice puffs, nostalgic herbal dalgona candy, herbal cocktails, and herbal tea brewed in a large decoction pot.

◎ Dongui bogam
Dongui bogam is a medical encyclopedia completed in 1610, written by Heo Jun after a meticulous study and observation of medical books and practices of China and Joseon. It is considered the best medical encyclopedia in the East and was registered as a UNESCO Memory of the World in 2009.
