Chiaksan Pictures

Monday, August 11, 2008

These dragons were on each side of the bridges on the mountain. Their heads were at the top and they had full bodies that wrapped around and stretched to the ground under the bridge. The detail in them was amazing.













This is one of the Buddha statues at the bottom of the mountain. There is a whole temple at the bottom.














This is the waterfall and green pond without Kyle and I standing in front of it.














This is the super cute and friendly cat that I met on the way past one of the Buddhist tents. He is so soft. I was close to getting a good picture of him, but he really seemed to want to bathe himself. All the Koreans were running away from him and I was running to him.









Self portrait at the green water and waterfall. This is the area you are not allowed to swim in because people are praying to the waterfall.









One of the massive butterflies that you can see here in Wonju but in great quantities out at Chiaksan. You can hear them moving their wings. (Darcie... I know you love this one!)














This is one of Matt's pictures from the top of the mountain. Next time I will make it up there myself.














This is another one of Matt's pictures from the top of the mountain. The city you see there is Wonju.
