old path & relaxation

There used to be a big temple named Hwangryong Sa (황룡사, 皇龍寺) near this path about 1500 years ago, which is located in 경주 Gyeongju. A variety of building stones still remain and tell silently us its history. The picture on the right shows cornerstones collected around here.
Autumn is the best season for hikers in Korea. On the way to Mt. Guryongsan(구룡산, 九龍山) near Gyeongsan, I encountered black goats. They stepped aside to let me pass even if I didn't mean to disturb them to relax. The picture below was taken somewhere around the top of Mt. Guryongsan.
