Summer travel Taebaek Gumunso

#SummerTravel SummerTravel Taebaek ⭐️Gumunso⭐️ is the Chinese character for 'Gumuso', which means a river flowing through a mountain, creating a large stone gate and a deep puddle underneath. 'Gumu' means hole or cave in old times, and 'so' means puddle in Chinese characters. It is also called 'Turunae' because the river flows through the mountain. In the 'Sejong Sillok Jiriji' and 'Daedongyeojido', it is recorded as 'Cheoncheon (穿川)', meaning a river with a hole. Gumunso is where Hwangjicheon and Cheoramcheon meet. The two waterways of Hwangjicheon and Cheoramcheon met an underground cave and gradually widened the cave, creating a cave-like terrain on the ground. Looking at the unique terrain of Gumunso, you can see how the terrain of the Korean Peninsula was formed 500 million years ago. It is highly valuable as a geological science experience site because various sedimentary structures and fossils of ancient organisms such as trilobites appear in limestone layers created in a marine environment are well preserved. 🎯11 Dongtaebaek-ro, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do #Taebaek #TaebaekTravel #Gugumso
