Moaksan Provincial Park (모악산도립공원)
- overview
Moaksan Mountain (alt. 795.2 m) is located in Gimje, Jeollabuk-do and is home to several Buddhist temples: Geumsansa, Guisinsa, Suwangsa, and Daewonsa. From the top of the mountain, visitors can see the Honam Delta as well as the Gimje Delta.
Designated as a provincial park in 1971, Moaksan is known for its incredible views and cultural heritages. Daewonsa and Suwangsa Temples are located on the southeast side of the mountain and Guisinsa Temple sits to the west. Geumsansa Temple, built during the Baekje period (AD 599), holds many precious pieces of Buddhist art.
One of the preferred methods for ascending the mountain is a trail along the ridge behind Simwonam Hermitage, which is particularly eye-catching in the spring when the mountain azaleas are in full bloom. From the summit, the Gimje Delta and Mangyeonggang River come into view, along with Unjangsan Mountain and the city of Jeonju. The cherry blossom tunnel extending from the parking lot to Iljumun Gate is another must-see for those who visit in spring.
