I enjoy hiking in the mountains. There are so many mountains and national parks in Korea. I think Mt. Jirisan is the most beautiful mountain in Korea. I have hiked Mt. Jirisan several times. As you may know, Mt. Jirisan has many peaks, and you can reach various peaks as you traverse the mountain ridge. From these peaks, you can see beautiful sights, like the one in the photo above. This photo was taken at the top of Cheonwangbong, the highest peak in Mt. Jirisan. It was winter at the time, and the weather was very clear, as you can see. This was the first time I experienced such clear skies after hiking up Cheonwangbong. I recommend hiking up Mt. Jirisan if you have some free time.
