We made it to the top of Namsan and the views were breathtaking. This photo doesn't do a justice. It was a bit difficult making it to the top since the map they gave us didn't have all the trails that off shooted the main one. We kept coming to forks in the trail with signs in Korean (we were able to read but didn't understand) From the top we could see down to the east side of the mountain (our destination) but we couldn't find a trail to get down there. In a confused state we wondered the top of Mount Namsan. We found a Korean man and asked him in broken Korean how to get down to the fortress and pond we needed to get to. He looked around and pointed to a small, hardly visible, trail signaling to us that this was indeed the trail down the mountain. We took it and it kept spliting into other trails. "Oh no... now we're really lost", we thought. It was steep, rocky, and parts didn't even look like a trail. Finally we made it to the bottom and ended up in a small farming village.
