| PT-3 Scent of the southern province : Boseong & Suncheon 2D1N :Aug. 21-22 (Sat.-Sun.) |
 |
|
The green tea fields at Boseong are among the most famous in Korea. The tea trees blanket the landscape like a soft green carpet creating some of the most picturesque views on the Korean Peninsula. Naganeupseong Folk Village offers you the chance to observe the daily dwellings indigenous to the south provincial area such as the kitchen area, the clay rooms, and Korean-style verandas. Seonamsa Temple is a clear example of the beauty of antiquity. The faded colors on the buildings' surfaces are barely discernible. Weeds sprout from between the roof tiles and the edges of the stone steps are worn. Such ancient elements blend in perfect harmony with the temple's natural surroundings. |
