So we've been busy exploring and having fun that we have sort of neglected our blog. Sorry about that.
So a few months ago we went to Geumjeongsan Mountain (금정산) and climbed the mountain to see a temple hiddne in the hills. At least it seemed like it was hidden when we couldn't find it.
We started our hike in what seemed like a fitting way by riding up the side of the mountain in a cable car. The views were amazing and we were able to see a decent distance away. There was some smog in the air so it limited our views, but we still enjoyed the ride up.

We found a road that we believed would lead to the temple we were searching for, but why would we take the easy way? Instead we found a little goat trail that I would be amazed to even see a goat attempt that we thought would be more direct than the gentle winding road up to the temple. It was a great relief when the trail lead us to the temple gate. We were able to enjoy a drink of the temple water and to explore the temple.

| It was amazing how large the carvings in the mountain were. |
After a bit more hiking we finally made it to the top of the mountain and enjoyed the scenery around us.
