It is located in the Nam-myeon, Damyang County of the South Jeolla Province, South Korea.
This garden harmonizes with nature in characteristic traditional Korean style. Clean waters in the valley flow below the wall and fall through the small cataract into the lake. This place can be said to be a cultivating house of scholar spirit in that many Confucian scholars discussed academic subjects and wrote their works here.
History
Soswaewon was originally constructed by Yang San-bo (Script error: No such module "Lang".Template:Category handler) from the end of 1520 through the middle of 1530. Yang gave up his government position after his teacher, Jo Gwang-jo (1482–1519) was exiled and then killed in the purge of 1519 called Gimyo sahwa (Script error: No such module "Lang".Template:Category handler).[1] So Yang made this garden to seclude himself from social position. The part of the garden was burnt down during the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598), but the buildings were reconstructed by his descendants, and the present Sosweawon was renovated by Yang Taek-jiScript error: No such module "Unsubst"., Yang san-boScript error: No such module "Unsubst".'s descendant in the fifth generation.
