Most sights in Jinju are located on the grounds here, at the west end of the north bank. Jinju's moment of glory came in 1592 during the Imjin War, when a force of just 3,800 Koreans held off an invading army of 20,000 (Japanese). Unfortunately and the Japanese came back the next year with an army of 70,000 — Jinju was finally crushed and all defenders were killed or committed suicide. The night scenery of the fortress is also a breathtaking sight and a must-see. Also called Jinju Castle.

• Chokseongnu Pavilion 35.189679, 128.081918 at the east side of the fortress - The command base during the battles of Jinju, this beautiful pavilion is next to the cliff with commanding views across the river. During days of peace, civil service exams were held here.

• Jinju National Museum - Opening Hours: Tuesday - Sunday 9AM Monday - 5PM ₩1000 At the west end of the fortress. A small but well-presented branch of the National Museum specializing in the Imjin War. Labeling in English is a little spotty but mostly sufficient. An interesting (if rather propagandistic) 3D film on the First Battle of Jinju is shown hourly for free.

• Nongae Shrine next to Chokseongnu - Commemorates the gisaeng (courtesan) Nongae, who seduced a Japanese general after their victory in the second battle, and with her arms wrapped around him plunged from the cliff to her — and his — death. The yearly Nongae Festival commemorates the event.

• Musical Fountain - a 15-minutes walk west of Jinju fortress, on the river. - This fountain is a must-see for any visitor to Jinju. An impressive water and light show is put on by the fountain in time to a selection of songs ranging from classical to popular music. Shows are at regular intervals beginning after dark (exact times depend on the season). This is a popular gathering place for couples and families in the summer.

A few sights of minor interest are scattered elsewhere around town.

• Eunyeolsa Shrine - The birthplace of Confucian scholar Gang Mincheom and the shrine is small but picture-perfect.

Air quality is fine. Jinju is a smaller city, so the air is clean.

Mostly, Koreans are very curious about foreigners. Many will gawk and stare while others will training their English. For the most part, Koreans are very friendly on the street and will take great pains to be helpful, despite the above attitudes. If working in Korea, one should do a little reading on Confucianism and how it translates into social standing.
