Suwôn (Suwon)
| Since ancient times, Suwon
in Gyeonggi province has been a city famous for its beautiful scenery and
abundant streams and mountains, with the clear water of the Suwon stream
flowing under graceful Mt. Gwanggyo.
Suwon today is also home to many government organizations and state-of-the-art industrial facilities including the plants of Samsung Electronics and SKC, and a number of research institutes.
