| Natural Bridge |
There was a fishing tournament you could sign up for. You use your hands to catch the stocked fish in the stream. A traditional bridge built out of logs and pine needles went across the river for you to be able to cross.
ESSENTIALS:
Besides the gas to get there and food, there isn't much money involved.
There are demonstrations and parades during the day.
If you want to participate in the fishing then you have to sign up early.
We did purchase some clics, they were just so irresistible.
There are treks into the mountain to see the fireflies. Fireflies are only located in this area of Korea.
Strollers will work great here.
It was a nice cultural fest.
DRIVING: Take HWY 1, to 35, to 30. There will be signs. Click on the blue address next to "location" and it will pull up a map.
