Mt. Naejang-san and Paekyang-sa Temple

On the way to Seoul, I stopped by lovely Paekyang-sa Temple in Jangseong County in order to take in some of the fall foliage. Paekyang-sa is located at the foot of Mt. Naejang-san, which is famous throughout Korea for it’s spectacular autumn colors. And pretty spectacular the colors were - for those residing on the other side of the Nakdong, it reminded me quite a bit of Mt. Juhwang in Ch’eongsong County, North Kyeongsang Province. Anyway, I promised you photos, and photos I have provided - click on the thumbs for the full-sized shots and explanations.
