I went on a hike with a three guys from the Australian puppeteering team and one of our translator's father. They hiked up the mountain... I am in bad shape...so 10 minutes up I told them to go on without me. I wandered around a Buddist temple. It was very crowded. I would say it was touristy... but there were almost all Koreans there... so its more local people visiting.
I ended up doing quite a bit of hiking on my own. It allowed me to sit for a couple of hours and listen to the leaves. After spending the past week in this thriving city, in was very refreshing.
