Where in Korea have you been to?
<Damyang Juknokwon>
The sun is blazing hot in Korea these days.. it's hard to stay out in the sun!
So, today's post will be about Damyang Juknokwon, where you can hide from the sun, but at the same time enjoy our beautiful nature.
I feel like I'm breathing in fresh, cool air just by the photo...
The air at Juknokwon will definitely be totally different from Seoul, because Juknokwon is a bamboo forest!
At Juknokwon, there is a walking path that penetrates through the whole forest.
Just by following the path, you will be able to have a good walk as well as get refreshed.
Juknokwon isn't a place with just bamboo trees.
There are small ponds, many other types of plants and several pavilions where you can take breaks.
After having a walk around Juknokwon, the last step is to have a cup of this natural mineral water! X)
