#JulyTravelSupport The corridors of Wolhwawon Garden in Hyowon Park, Suwon, aren't simply sheltering from the rain; they're vital structures that divide and connect the landscape. The small pavilion, pond, stone bridge, and rocks visible beyond the corridor frame the distinct landscapes like a single frame. The composition is arranged like a scene at each path leading to the center of the garden. The crescent-shaped bridge over the pond exudes a tranquility that demands careful crossing. #SuwonPlacesToVisit

#summervacay Sapae Mountain in Yangju totally flew under my radar, until now. Decided to check it out on a whim, and it ended up being the perfect chill-but-still-sweaty kind of hike. The trail starts mellow, weaving through pine trees and soft dirt paths. No major crowds either, which was a big win. Just birds, breeze, and that peaceful mountain hum. As you climb, things do get steeper, some rocky sections and switchbacks that’ll wake your legs up, but nothing too wild. What really surprised me was the view from the top. Sapae Peak has this wide-open lookout where you can see mountains rolling off into the distance and tiny towns below. Super peaceful, with space to sit and soak it in. It’s not flashy or famous, but that’s the charm. Great for solo hikers or anyone looking for a mental reset without battling weekend trail traffic. Bring snacks, take your time, and let Sapae do its quiet magic. Hidden gem for sure.

#summervacay Spent a day just wandering around Anyang in Kyonggi-do, and honestly? Totally underrated. It’s got that cool mix of city life and chill hangout spots, and it doesn’t try too hard, which I love. Started off just walking with no plan (my favorite kind of plan), and found this riverside path that goes forever. Super peaceful, lots of locals biking or just chilling by the water. Major zen vibes. Then somehow ended up in this artsy area with sculptures and random installations, turns out Anyang has an Art Park and it's weirdly awesome. Food-wise, you’re covered. Found a tiny noodle spot tucked away behind a bus stop, so good I didn’t speak for five minutes. Later grabbed some street snacks from a stall outside the station, and yep, lived my best life. Anyang isn’t flashy, but that’s kind of the charm. It’s got character, comfort, and a little creativity if you look for it. 10/10 would wander again.
