불암산
Buramsan Mountain is a low rocky mountain with an elevation of 508m rising on the border of Sanggye-dong and Junggye-dong in Nowon-gu, Seoul, and Byeollae-myeon in Namyangju-si. The total area is approximately 5,355,396㎡ (1,620,000 pyeong). It was designated as an urban natural park in 1977. The mountain was named Buramsan because its shape resembles a Buddha wearing a songnak (monk's hat made of pine bark), and it is also known as Cheonbosan Mountain or Pilamsan Mountain. Its long-stretching ridge offers expansive, refreshing views, and the mountain trails are not rugged, making it an easy climb. In particular, climbing to the summit at night allows visitors to appreciate the wonderful night view of Seoul. MoreLess
