The park entrance is within the city limits and is just a 20 minute bus ride from downtown. Whether you hike the entire mountain or just see the sights around the Mudeung Village, its a great spot to check out in the fall.
This is the 36th Anniversary of the Gwangju Uprising - a watershed moment in Korea’s democratic movement that still inspires people today.

When I lived in Busan, websites like this one were a great resource for finding English teaching work. However, after moving to Gwangju, the natives don't seem to use any that I could find.

I love the part that friendship and camaraderie plays in Korean society, even well into old-age. This particular band of merry men were sat enjoying the crisp fall weather in Gwangju's Pureungil Park.
