Best time to visit

Van eind september tot begin november: de herfstbladeren kleuren de hellingen in dieprood en goud, en de toeristenstroom neemt aanzienlijk af. Op weekdagen om 7 uur 's ochtends ben je bijna alleen met de bergen.

Budget tips

Entree is 3500 won (ongeveer 2,5 dollar), wat belachelijk is voor zo'n park. De kabelbaan naar de Geumgangsan-piek kost 10.000 won retour, neem contant geld mee, niet overal worden kaarten geaccepteerd.

About

Quick facts: Rocky peaks soar up to 1708 meters, and in spring the slopes are immersed in purple blooms of rhododendrons. Every year, more than 3 million travelers come here to see the granite cliffs covered in dense forests.

Highlights: At dawn, clouds hang between the granite peaks in the shape of dragons, as the locals say. This is where the oldest Buddhist temple, Sinheungsa, founded in 652, is located, and inside there is an 80-meter bronze Buddha statue.
