Juwangsan National Park
This was just a short trip- stayed in Cheongsong overnight and then went up to the Juwangsan National Park. This is one of Korea’s more isolated and less-visited parks. Started up a valley after a visit to the temple next to the entrance booth. Went up close to the head of the valley. There’s an interesting artisan’s village up there. Came home that night with the weather turning to rain. Here’s some photos.
A building of the Daejeonsa Temple is in the foreground
A plethora of waterfalls are found in this canyon
……..……..
The trail passes through a narrow part of the canyon, and pieces of an ancient pagoda have been patched together with new parts
………………
These lotus flowers, a symbol of Buddha, are growing in a pot next to the above pagoda
