It is the location of the Pujŏn Revolutionary Battle Site. It is a 2600 ha site comprising the freshwater Lake Puon and adjacent coniferous forest. It has been identified by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area (IBA) because it supports a significant population of vulnerable great bustards.[1]
