 In
the past people displayed a tone which look like a woman's
vagina. Shortly after the housewives stated cheating on
thier husbands. Then people put another phalic shaped
rock beside the woman's rock and the local men's peace
came back. This story sounds like a fairy tail but it
it really happened. There is also a park for stones located
at Na Jeon station, Buk Pyong - myoun, called " Nan
Hyang Ro Won ". Once you enter this small park you
will see interesting rocks most of them look like a penis
or vagina. Some of the mail rocks are very majestic. Two
of the femal rocks are called grand daughtor and grond
mother. The Grand mother rocks a expecially interesting
because the grand mother rock has a huge hole. When poeple
come through it, it look like a mmother giving birth.
Till last year only a few rocks were there. These rocks
were discovered in different parts of the city from 1971.
At that time it was believed that if women touched the
vagina rocks they would cheat on thier husbands to counter
this, poeple curried vagina rocks in. But after that there
werw many car accidents and local poeple getting sick
with no reason. So the people dug up the vagina rock again.
But Jeong Seon Province still wanted to keep thier wives
from cheating, so they brought in the penis rock. Meanwhile
local people thought if the vagina rock and penis rock
were together then it would keep Yin and Yang in harmony.
At first local people worried that something bad would
happen when the penis rock came in. But nothign came of
it. Local women don't have extra-marital affairs even
though they touch the vagina rocks. Man's and Woman's
energies are said to gather here. Many couples come and
pray for their marriage, babies and their bealth. Tourist
take pictures of those rare shaped rocks. This spot is
becaming a tourist hot spot.
