Gwon Geum Seong Fortress

Breathtaking views. Cable car for an easier access and a short walk are totally worth it. Due to its rather steep slope and bare rocks, it feels much higher than actual height of the peak (only 700 meters! above the sea level). And yet curved rocks embraces the surrounding and even visitors reflecting the flow of time.

Breathtaking scenery and strong winds that nearly blew my smartphone off the cliff.

I don't know. Should I take the cable car up to see such a wonderful place without difficulty (I have a very bad feeling about mountains), or should I come here comfortably and feel sorry for the mountain because disabled, physically challenged, or weak people can come and see it like this? Haha. In the future, if I have the stamina and time, I would like to climb it one step at a time... wouldn't I feel less sorry about Mt. Seorak then?

Expected some ruins city there as it claimed "city" in the map. But actually nothing at top. Also very clowded there. Not worth the price to take cable car to the top. Carpark also expensive

It snowed a lot in the morning and then was sunny from 12pm so I ran to ride a cablecar. It was very clever decision! After you get off from cablecar, you have to walk about 10-15mins to get to the top, which was very slippery. Recommend here!!

It was an amazing tour. On of the best place in South Korea. The view from top of the mountain was amazing.

It's a short hike to reach this rocky fortress. It would be more beautiful in November.

Strongly recommended!! Much better Spring and Autumn.. but winter ☃️ also good only very cold
