Muknamul refers to dried mountain greens that are rehydrated and stir-fried before serving.<\/p>\n<p>The communal bibimbap was made with 10 mal of rice, 20 pheasants, more than 10 varieties of mountain vegetables, and a whole lot of local heart and effort.<\/p>\n<p>A visitor from Seoul said, \u201cSoaking my feet in the hot spring while watching cherry blossoms fall felt almost otherworldly. The pheasant bibimbap was so flavorful that even the kids went back for seconds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 41st Suanbo Hot Spring Festival ran four days starting April 9. On the final day, April 12, the saxophone competition finals and a festive closing celebration took center stage.<\/p>\n<p>That day, residents of North Chungcheong Province also flocked to top spring spots like Cheongnamdae, Songnisan, and Woraksan to savor the season.<\/p>\n<p>By 2 p.m., about 5,000 people had visited Cheongnamdae, the presidential villa\u2014roughly 1,500 more than at the same time last week.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, approximately 2,600 and 2,090 hikers visited Songnisan and Woraksan National Parks, respectively\u2014about 300\u2013400 more visitors than a week earlier.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/contents-cdn.viewus.co.kr\/image\/2026\/04\/CP-2022-0006\/image-999d24f6-06c7-426f-8d61-1faf2076cd0a.jpeg\" alt=\"&nbsp;Chungju City\"
