Trail

  • Gangjin Baseurak-gil: it is home to BaekRyeon Temple, camellia groves and the House of Dasan - a house that Chŏng Yagyong stayed in while in exile. He was often referred to as "Dasan" and is known as a great thinker of the late Joseon period (1392-1910). It is a sacred mountain where "Dasan" and "Haejangseonsa" of Baengnyeonsa built a friendship and ancient Koreans left trails of their lives over many years. Mount Mandeok is connected to another mountain called Mount Seokmun and there is a viaduct that links the two mountains.
