I loved it!... went several times.

The pride of Korea in the mid-90's: The Taejon Expo. It closed, then reopened for many years as the Taejon Science Park. |
|
It was jam-packed with futuristic buildings and fountains. I loved it!... went several times. |
|
Ten years later, another big expo: The Ceramics Expo in Yoju. |
|
This one was more traditional in its theme. |
|
I'm in a traditional picnic pavillion, at Korean Folk Village, with some very up-to-date students of mine. |
|
An here I'm at another traditional sight, at a traditional time: it's cherry blossom time at Mount Songnisan in central Korea. |

Mountain climbing in Korea. Yes, this is as steep and scary as it looks. Worse, I ran out of film, and had to reload where this picture was taken! This is Taejon Mountain, central Korea. |
 |
It gets a little easier. I came for to see these neat bridges in person. |
 |
Dessert on the journey. I had a chance to rest and talk with these three lovely ladies. I loved mountain climbing in Korea! |

A three-log bridge at Korean Folk Village. Tricky... but not as tricky as the one-log bridge! |

A glyph-carved rock. |
