Gongsanseong, a World Cultural Heritage site located in Gongju, was a sturdy mountain fortress that protected Gongju during the Baekje period! Currently, it has become a walking trail for Gongju citizens and a holy place for tourists. 😄 I visited last weekend, and these days, Gongsanseong is all green, so it was a perfect time to visit💚 It is a mountain fortress of moderate size, so it is good for a quick look around, so I recommend it as a travel destination near Seoul for the weekend. 📍Gongsanseong - 53-51 Geumseong-dong, Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do 🏷️Admission fee - Adults ₩3,000 - Youths, military ₩2,000 - Children ₩1,000 #SeoulSuburbs #WeekendTravel

#TravelMoon ✨️Gongsanseong✨️ is a mountain fortress built during the Baekje period. It was called Ungjinseong during the Baekje period, and became Gongsanseong after the Goryeo period. It was built to protect Gongju, the capital city for 64 years under 5 generations until the capital was moved from Hansanseong to Ungjin in 475 (1st year of King Munju’s reign), and then to Buyeo in 538 (16th year of King Seong’s reign). It was the central mountain fortress at the time. It is a valley-style mountain fortress that surrounds the peak of Gongsan (公山), which is 110m above sea level, to the western peak, and the perimeter of the fortress is 2,450m. It is about 800m east to west and about 400m north to south in terms of plan, and stone walls remain on all sides. It was originally an earthen fortress, but was rebuilt into a stone fortress in the mid-Joseon period. 🎯280 Woongjin-ro, Woongjin-dong, Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do #Gongsanseong #Gongju #GongjuTravel

Gongsanseong Fortress, one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, is a Gongju night view spot that is beautiful during the day, but even more beautiful at night!

The finale of the Gongju Tour is the Gongsanseong Fortress Tour. You can take the mini train or walk around and see everything in 30 minutes. And I fell in love with the flavor of the world's best snack, the chestnut bread. 6 pieces cost 12,000 won, which is not cheap, but it was worth the money. I highly recommend you try the chestnut bread on the Gongsanseong Fortress Tour. #GongjuTravel #Gongsanseong #GongsanseongNightView #HotPlace

We are a bunch of friends from various nationalities. We discovered this place almost by accident. We were on our way back to our homes when we saw this beautiful fortress standing tall with a mesmerizing view on a river bank. We immediately stopped and went inside. Thankfully, it was a good decision. Situated on a river bank with a relative height, the fortress offers a beautiful view all around when atop. Clean and green environment is so soothing and calm that one is tempted to spend more time here than can originally thought to spare. Stoned-wall structure is typical of a fortresses anywhere in the world. Yet being located right in the middle of a city grants a rather unique identity to Gongsanseong Fortress.

In this story, I would like to introduce you to 'Gongsanseong', a place that many people visit when traveling to Gongju! It is close to Gongju Bus Terminal across Geumgang River, so you can walk there! The castle that you can see while crossing Geumgang Bridge is like an impregnable fortress! This place, which was also used as the second capital of Baekje, is so nice to visit on a cool autumn day like today because you can see the entire castle just by walking along the castle wall! In addition, you can enjoy the magnificent appearance of Gongsanseong from the Gongdaebang located right in front of Gongsanseong, so don't miss it! *Gongsanseong - Address: 53-51 Geumseong-dong, Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do - Operating hours: 09:00~18:00 - Admission fee: Adults 1,200 won / Youths 800 won / Children 600 won #Hot place#Safe travel#City travel#Vacation travel#Life shot spot

#Must-see historic site Gongsanseong is a wonderful Baekje historic site You can catch a glimpse of the scenery of Gongju and traces of Baekje as you walk along the road In particular, it is a place where you can take a walk while breathing in the fresh natural air along the castle walls that are connected through the bushes

#summervacay So I decided to check out Gongsanseong Fortress in Gongju, and honestly? Great life choice. It’s one of those places that feels both historic and super chill at the same time. You show up expecting some old stone walls, and yeah, they’re there, but the views? Next level. The walking path goes around the fortress walls, and it’s the perfect mix of light hiking and “wow, Korea’s really pretty.” You’ve got river views on one side, mountains peeking in the distance, and breezy spots to just stop and vibe. The fortress itself has a calm, old-soul energy. Some restored buildings, some cool gates, and random spots to sit and imagine you’re in a sageuk drama. Not a lot of crowds either, which made it even better. Bring comfy shoes, maybe a coffee, and take your time. It’s not a rush-through kind of place, it’s a slow walk, deep breath, take-it-all-in kind of spot. Gongsanseong totally surprised me, in the best way.

Walk through the old alleys, get drunk on the tranquil atmosphere, and enjoy a cup of tea at a hanok cafe. 🍵.

The second day is a healing course in nature! Head to Gapsa Temple and experience a quiet mountain temple while walking along the lush forest path. 🧘♀️.

It is a mountain fortress built to defend Gongju, the capital of the Baekje period, and it is said to have been designated as a historic site on January 21, 1963. There was a pregnant woman in the group, so we couldn't go in, but there are various walking courses, from 30 minutes to 2 hours, and the Geumgang River and cityscape that you can see while walking are also beautiful! There is also a palace site inside, so if you have the chance, I recommend going in :)

#cherryblossom25 Gongsanseong Fortress in Gongju is a fantastic place to experience cherry blossoms wrapped in a rich historical setting. Walking along the fortress walls, I was surrounded by blooming cherry trees and panoramic views of the city and river below. The petals softly floating against the backdrop of ancient stone structures created a scene that felt right out of a drama. I especially loved the peacefulness of the inner courtyard, where you can sit under the trees and soak in the spring air. This spot offers a wonderful mix of culture, history, and nature. It’s calm, scenic, and full of charm.

I thought I should go to Gongju for a day trip and take a walk around Gongsanseong Fortress and heal myself.. After burning calories for an hour at Gongsanseong Fortress, I went to the bakery Bammaeul right in front of me and bought fomo to refill my stomach...ㅎ (While waiting, I couldn't resist buying chestnut injeolmi at the store next door, so I bought some more, and almost all of the bread cost was 60,000 won) I stopped by the market on the way and bought some if they were open, but Bokja Tteok House and Dangol Tongdak were both open??! What should I do? I have to buy them all;;ㅎ When I come back to Gongju, I have to go eat Gimpitang, which is a must-eat. Of course, if there are 3 people, I should have a mini, but I ate a 4-person portion!! And when I got home, I ate a ton of chestnut food, whole chicken, and chestnut makgeolli,,, I'll just be a pig princess...🐷❕

This is Gongsanseong Fortress in Gongju-si, Chungcheongnam-do, Republic of Korea. It served as the royal castle of Ungjin Baekje from 475, when Baekje moved its capital to Gongju, until King Seong moved the capital to Buyeo in 538. It is connected to Gongju-si to the south, and borders the Geumgang River to the north. Most of the mountainous area, except for the southeast, has a steep slope, creating a natural fortress-like terrain with a folding screen. Important facilities, including the royal palace, were placed inside. These relics, which functioned as royal castles by installing the royal palace inside the mountain fortress, are evaluated as characteristic royal castle relics of Baekje. On July 4, 2015, it was registered as a World Heritage Site along with the Songsan-ri Tombs. #Domestic travel #Travel plan #February travel subsidy event

#Domestic travel #Princess #Night Gongju, Chungcheong-do, not far from Seoul. It's my first time here, but it's a city famous for bears and chestnuts, which were the capital of Baekje. It's quiet overall and the atmosphere is pretty. The convenience store is also a pretty Hanok house.. There's a lot to see and eat after visiting Magoksa Temple, Gongsanseong Fortress, and the market. Go there for healing.
