Mt. Wolchul 월출산
This mountain stretches to the sea towards Mokpo, and has been labeled “Sculpture Park” given its strange rocks and stone formations. The mountain is famous for its unique beauty during four seasons – in spring, azaleas and Korean royal rosebay; in summer, waterfalls; in the autumn foliage fields of reeds; and in winter, a perfectly snow covered landscape.
