Bird's Eye View of Taejon...





On Sunday afternoon (May 20th), Brian and I hiked up a mountain called Bomunsan on the south end of Taejon. We were rewarded with an incredible view of the city on one side and of thickly-wooded mountains on the other. At the top of the mountain was a small fortress wall dating back to about 600 AD. Along the way to the top there were little mountain cafes and rest stops, some with polka-like Korean folk music playing (perhaps to put a spring in your step as you hike?). It was a beautiful afternoon; the girls unfortunately missed the adventure because they had too much homework to complete (very sad for them!). We also couldn't resist throwing in one more photo of a sunset over Taejon from just a few days ago.
