Leaf It to Naejangsan

#summervacay Naejangsan National Park? Straight-up paradise. I went during peak foliage season, and it was like walking through a real-life filter, just red, orange, and gold everywhere. Even if you’re not a “hiking person,” this place will win you over. It’s got those easy trails that still make you feel accomplished, plus epic photo ops around every corner. The vibe is super peaceful too. There’s a little temple tucked in the mountains (shoutout to Naejangsa Temple), and it feels like the perfect place to just sit and breathe for a minute. Also, there’s a cable car if your legs are protesting but you still want those mountain views. Major win. It gets a bit crowded when the leaves are popping off, but honestly? Worth it. The combo of crisp air, pretty trees, and snack stands selling warm street food is unbeatable. If you’re ever in Korea during fall, go here. Nature really popped off with this one.
