1679-8 Daegi-ri, Wangsan-myeon, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do
Overview
Nochusan Mountain, part of the Taebaek Mountain Range, derives its name from the ancient Chinese states of Lu (No) and Zou (Chu). This naming commemorates the area's historical significance as a place of study for two of Korea's great scholars: Seol Chong from the Silla period and Yi I from the Joseon era. The Mojeongtap Trail on Nochusan Mountain is noteworthy for its 3,000 stone towers, erected by an elderly mother in honor of her children. The term “Mojeong” signifies a mother's love for her children.
