In the UNESCO-protected Seoraksan National Park, you'll be greeted by the vibrant beauty of nature at every turn, making it one of the most mesmerizing places to experience autumn in Korea. Literally meaning "Snowy Crag Mountains," the Seoraksan range, with its snow-capped peaks, provides a stunning backdrop to the park’s temples. It’s an excellent destination for hiking along numerous trails, including the challenging Ulsan Rock, or you can take a gondola ride up the mountain for breathtaking views. As you wander through this 400,000 square kilometer biosphere reserve, be prepared to be awestruck by the impressive giant Buddha statue along your route.
