[Ganghwa Island] Goryeo Mountain filled with clouds or mist

in #hive-1949132 years ago

For the descent, the walkers follow the people in the direction of the descent to Mani.

I see an embarrassing information board,

The asphalt paved road is a military protection area and is no longer passable/accessible.

As expected, Ganghwa Island is still a strategic military point,

There are many soldiers stationed there ....!!!!

It is said to be particularly invincible (self-proclaimed) among the groups,

"Marines" who are said to catch ghosts....ㅋ.

Following the guide, I went down in the direction the walker was going.

There are Buddhist temple installations nearby,

At the end, a small temple called "Baekryeonsa" appears...^^

I think I've heard of "Baekryeonsa" somewhere.

The vague and historically significant Baengnyeonsa Temple I vaguely remember is not here...ㅋ

Buddhists appreciate and love lotus flowers that bloom beautifully even in muddy water, and there are so many buddhas with the character "yeon" all over the country. I also really like boiled lotus root...!!!!!

After reading the Baengnyeonsa Temple information board,

Why is there a story about King Jangsu, the son of King Gwanggaeto the Great of Goguryeo, on Ganghwa Island...?

As far as I know,

During the reign of King Gwanggaeto the Great, I heard that Gwanmiseong, the strategic point in northern Baekje, which had been stolen by Goguryeo, was near Gimpo or Ganghwa Island.

In conclusion, I think that, judging by the appearance of the King of Longevity, there must be an interest in Ganghwa Island....ㅋ

Beomjong that is available in all big temples...^^

It is said that all anxieties disappear when you hear the sound of the bell, but I am not a Buddhist...

The wishes of the Buddhists...!!!!

After reading it more or less... wish fulfilment, health, prosperity in everything,

May all your wishes come true...!!!!!!

Looking at the map of the Baengnyeonsa Temple precincts,

To get to the final destination, the dolmen ruins car park, you have to go further north.

Mmm, since it's downhill, you can trust your body to gravity, just take it easy and go down as your feet do...!!!!!

Looking down, it is said to be the private property of the Baengnyeonsa Temple, and there are beautiful wild flowers and old trees...^^

The yellow flowers are beautiful, so I took them with my smartphone, but the distance is too great, so it's blurred...

On the way down after climbing the mountain.

You show the hiking route when you go up, or when you come down after everything is finished ... haha

By the way, looking at the map, "Mt. Goryeo", which looked simple, is a mountain with its own scale, and it looks complicated...!!!!!

Perhaps because Ganghwa Island is a strategic military point, there are many military bases and military installations.

As a result, the Naver map is not displayed on .....

Still, if I briefly mark the area I walked today,

I started to walk up through Gukhwa-ri Village at the bottom,

The "Blue Bird Tour" bus that took me dropped me off at the entrance to Gukhwa-ri from Mt Goryeo,

After going up, the pick-up is at the car park of the dolmen site.

The bus driver will inform you in advance.

Some people overlooked this and went down to Gukhwa-ri again.

Some people took a taxi to the dolmen site or took an intercity bus home.....   

This is the way up to the top of Mt. Goryeo, down through Baengnyeonsa temple and down to the dolmen site at the top...!!!!!

When I arrived at the site of the dolmen, I saw a gravestone....

"Yeongaesomun Stele at Daemak Ridge in Goguryeo".

It is said that Yeon Gaesomun, who was in power in Goguryeo's past, was born and raised near Mount Goryeo on Ganghwa Island.

Well, why is it so important?

And isn't it a military/traditional company that staged a coup for political ambitions...?

Believe the contents of the tombstone or not....

Having arrived at the dolmen ruins,

After waiting for a while, you can take the "Blue Bird Tour" bus from Ganghwa Island and go home.....

By the way, it is also worth to see this place where the car park of the tour bus is located...^^

When I was in junior high and high school, I only saw pictures in the "National History" textbook, that guy...^^

It's tough and well made....

When it rains, it looks perfect to hide under, pitch a tent and play....!!!!

There are many dolmens nearby,

It is said that Yado is a dolmen, but it doesn't look like one... haha

image.png

I can see buses waiting for hikers in the tour bus car park in the distance... haha

I haven't walked for a long time, and I'm exhausted!!!!!

image.png

Before getting on the bus, I saw a local traditional market made up of tents, so I visited it.

I was trying to buy turnip kimchi, a speciality of Ganghwa Island.

The pear blossoms in front of the stand are beautiful, so I bought some pears...

By the way, aren't pears supposed to come out in autumn...?????

Still, sweet and cold it's delicious... haha

It is a well-known fact, but

If you are using an express bus or taking a group bus tour, you should know the board number ....!

I also saw the azaleas of Mount Goryeo,

Returning home promising next year's Jindalrae.....!!!
