Overview

Deoksungsan Mountain is referred to as Chungcheong region's Geumgangsan Mountain for its beauty. Within Deoksungsan Mountain is Sudeoksa Temple, famous for its Daeungjeon Hall as the oldest surviving wooden building in Korea. The mountain's most prominent features are the oddly shaped rocks that are often compared to the shape of a human skull or a beast with its mouth wide open. Some of the most scenic points are Wonhyobong Peak, Seongmunbong Peak, and Haetaebawi Rock. Several Buddhist temples and cultural heritages occupy the mountain. The mountain is also a popular destination for family trips thanks to its short hiking course and Deoksan Hot Springs.
