Geumgok-dong, Buk-gu, Jeonnam-Gwangju Special Metropolitan City

Overview

Mudeungsan National Park is a mountain park lining the edge of Hwasun-gun, Damyang-gun and Buk-gu. Mudeungsan Mountain (1,186 meters) features three rock peaks called Cheonwangbong, Jiwangbong, and Inwangbong, also known as the "Jeongsang Three."

Mudeungsan Mountain's gradual slope makes it an easy climb for all. Among the more majestic of these sites are the Seoseokdae, Gyubong, and Ipseokdae peaks. At the base of the mountain are several famous temples including Yaksasa, Jeungsimsa, and Wonhyosa Temples. Mudeungsan Mountain is also known for its beauty throughout the year. The autumn leaves around Gyubongam Hermitage and silver grass of Baengma Ridge are quite spectacular. In winter, snow and ice on the mountain create exquisite scenery as well. Below the mountain, there are a variety of recreational facilities and tourist sites for visitors.
