The Jeongok Prehistory Museum was built on the site where East Asia's first Acheulian hand axe was discovered on April 25, 2011. Also called the “door to the prehistoric times,” the museum is being groomed to become the center of North Gyeonggi-do's tourist attractions along with Hantangang River tourist spots. There are plenty of excavation programs outdoors in the beautiful LOHAS-certified Yeoncheon-gun region. The Jeongok Prehistory Museum is the base of world prehistoric research.
