Towangseong Waterfall or Towangseongpokpo () is a waterfall in Seoraksan, Sokcho, Gangwon Province, South Korea. The three-part waterfall has a top section of 150 m (492 ft), a middle section of 80 m (262 ft) and a bottom section of 90 m (295 ft). At a total combined length of 320 m (1,049 ft), it is the longest waterfall in South Korea.
The water flows from the waterfall through two more waterfalls, until it eventually joins a stream called Ssangcheon ().
An alternate name for the waterfall is Singwangpokpo (). The "Towang" portion of the waterfall's name, meaning "hearty earth", comes from a belief that rock formations such as the ones found at the waterfall are only possible when there is much earth energy (as in the traditional five elements).
