Day
9
We wake up early in the bath- house,
eat spicy noodles, ditch our shorts
& T-shirts, and reclaim
our clothes and head up the west coast to Gongju. |
|
 |
|
 |
|
We
stop to go in King Muryeong's
tomb, an enormous grassy
semicircular pyramid type of grave, and admire the skill
of the craftsmen who made the jewellery, swords, and golden
diadems from over 1500 years ago. |
|
Still
in Gongju we visit a Fortress
which dates back from 475AD, plus a mountain temple, this
involves a walk of many steep inclines.
|
|
 |
|
|
|
 |
|
We
travel on to one of the Korean
folk villages, functioning
as it would have done a hundred years ago.
Eventually we arrive back to Seoul
and our home temple where we prepare ourselves for a
4:00am wake up
call.
