Damdahun is a rice cake experience education center located in Sangok-dong, Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do, in the Geomundol (Black Stone) Village. It was established by Park Gyeong-ae, a Gyeonggi-do designated rice cake master, and opened on October 23, 2009. Damdahun offers experience programs including rice cake making (rice cake cake), yanggaeng making, meju making, jang making, kimchi making, and tofu making, as well as operating a weekend farm (leased annually). It aims to educate children and adolescents, who have dietary habits focused on instant and Western foods, about healthy Korean food through hands-on experiences and promote easy rice cake recipes so families can make rice cakes themselves. Damdahun continues efforts to popularize rice cakes and will strive to develop new recipes and designs to globalize rice cakes. On December 24, 2010, Damdahun was designated as an excellent experience space by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.

Uijeongbu Budae Jjigae Street is a food specialty street designated and operated as one of the tourism theme alleys, formed by Budae Jjigae restaurants gathered next to the former Yangju county office. The 'budae' in Budae Jjigae refers to the US military base stationed right after the Korean War; it was not a dish eaten by soldiers but started in the area around the US military base. During a time of food scarcity, Western ingredients like ham, sausage, and bacon from the US base were combined with traditional ingredients like kimchi, gochujang, and rice cakes to make a spicy and refreshing stew suited to Korean tastes. The street centers around 'Oden Restaurant,' an early officially recognized origin restaurant by the city, with a total of 12 restaurants gathered, and hosts the Uijeongbu Specialty Stew Food Festival every October. The 2008 comic 'Sikgaek' by author Heo Young-man, also adapted into an SBS drama, featured an episode where the adopted character 'Ted Oh' finds nostalgic flavors in Uijeongbu, depicting the origin of Budae Jjigae and touching on painful aspects of our history, gaining great popularity. Located right in front of exit 2 of Uijeongbu Central Station on the Uijeongbu Light Rail Transit, it has excellent public transportation access; parking varies by restaurant when using a private car, so individual inquiries to restaurants are recommended. Across the street are the Uijeongbu Fusion Culture Tourism Information Center, Haengbok-ro, Uijeongbu Jeil Market, and Uijeongbu Station East Square within walking distance.

[보영식당] 원조 '부대찌개'. 그러나 이젠 소시지와 햄과 각종 사리가 가득 담긴 영양만점의 찌개로 세대 교체되어 그 명성 역시 가히 전국구라 할 수 있게 되었는데, 그 중에 의정부의 부대찌개는 '의정부찌개'로 불리워질만큼 그 맛을 인정받았는데 이중 가장 대표적인 집중의 하나가 바로 '보영식당'이다. 직접 담근 보리고추장과 김치에서 우러나는 그 속 깊은 얼큰함을 꼭 한 번 맛보길 바란다. [고산떡갈비] 최고 품질의 한우 갈빗살로 만든 떡갈비는 매일 저녁 다음날 쓸 만큼의 양만 칼질해 양념한 후 하룻밤 숙성 시킨 뒤 아침마다 주문과 동시에 석쇠에 구워 기름기는 빠지고 육즙은 풍부해 고기 본연의 맛을 느낄 수 있다. 특히 1979년부터 창업해 대를 이어가고 있다.

Mangwolsan Temple is located on the beautiful and outstanding Dobongsan Mountain, which features rocky peaks such as Jawonbong, Manjangbong, Seon-inbong, and Jubong. There are two routes leading to Mangwolsan Temple: one course that passes through Daewonsa, Wonhyosa, and Gwangbeopsa sequentially from the ticket office, and another course following the Wondobong Valley. From Mangwolsan Temple, both trails lead to the Podae Ridge. Mangwolsan was founded in 639 AD, the 8th year of Queen Seondeok of Silla's 27th reign, by Monk Haeho under the queen's order to pray for the prosperity of the royal family. The name Mangwolsan was given with the intention of praying toward Wolseong (Moon Castle) in Seorabeol at that time. This place has historically been home to many great monks of the Unsu sect, including Hyegeo and Yeongso from the Goryeo period, and Cheonbong, Yeongwol, and Doam during the Joseon period, as well as Seon sages called Do-in such as Mangong, Hanam, and Seongwol in modern times. To the southwest of the main hall of Mangwolsan is Hyegeo Guksa Budo (a Gyeonggi-do Tangible Cultural Property). Many monks still practice meditation here. A Budo is a stone pagoda housing the relics or ashes of a renowned monk, usually built near a temple. This Budo enshrining Hyegeo Guksa’s relics is an octagonal round pavilion-type pagoda, 3.4 meters tall with a pagoda body circumference of 3.1 meters. The pagoda consists of a pedestal section containing a sphere-shaped body, a roof stone, and a finial. The pedestal includes a three-tiered octagonal base stone 80 cm high, topped by a supporting stone. The pagoda body is spherical, and grooves are carved above the supporting stone and below the roof stone for structural stability. The roof stone was carved from a single stone including the eaves and finial; its drip surface reflects the shape of a wooden temple roof with eight corner decorations. The finial is also made from a single stone and features lotus patterns on the bell-shaped eaves. The owner of the Budo, Hyegeo Guksa, had the family name No and the courtesy name Hongso, and served as a national monk during the Goryeo period, though little is known about his biography.

조선 후기 실학자 서계 박세당(1629∼1703) 선생이 저술 활동을 하던 건물이다. 선생은 조선 현종 1년(1660) 과거에 급제하여 여러 벼슬자리에 올랐으나 40세에 관직을 그만두고 이곳에서 학문연구와 후진양성에 힘썼다. 또한 직접 농사를 지으면서 체험한 것을 토대로 그의 대표적인 농학서 『색경』을 저술했다. 처음에는 안채와 안사랑, 바깥 사랑, 행랑채를 갖춘 조선 후기 사대부가의 규모였으나, 한국전쟁 때 대부분 소실되고 현재는 바깥 사랑채만 남아 있다. 사랑채 규모는 앞면 5칸· 옆면 2칸 반으로 누마루가 덧붙어 있어 乙자형 구조로 되어 있다. 사랑채는 동쪽의 수락산을 배경으로 하고 있는 서향집에서 왼쪽을 향하고 있다.
