Seorak Mountain


Today, I am going to introduce a beautiful national park, Seorak Mountain to you.



Seoraksan national park


2009, when Trev came to Korea first time,
we had a family trip to Seorak Mountain.


(official Korean tourism website)



Seorak Mountain is the most favorite place for my family.

It has a beautiful mountain and ocean/beach, plus FOOD!






 


On the way to "SinHeung Sa (temple)"

you'll encounter a massive Buddhist statue.








SinHeung Temple is one of the easiest hiking routes in Seorak.
This temple was initiated 652. 
And it got current appearance since 1644.





Since I was in flip flops and Trev was suffering from jet-leg,
we took another easy way to climb the mountain

Cable car.
(this sounds like Trev so much, eh?)


You have to book a ticket and comeback on your schedule.
thats why we went to Sinheung temple first.




this area is called
kwonkeumsong (Fortress)

detailed information:




He is smiling now..but..



He lost his smile while he is climbing to the top on sketchy rocks.







I did wear flip flops, and it was such a bad idea.
Please wear sneakers!!!






It will be 2 hours from the Seoul Bus terminal.
No train but you can rent a car to drive. 



Hope some of you explore Seorak!
