Gazebo at Wollyubong mountain top in Hwangsan-myeon, South Korea

By definition, pagodas include multi-tiered roofs, meaning this gazebo perched partway up Wollyubong (aka Wolryubong) mountain doesn’t quite qualify. Still, it provides the perfect accent against the massif’s autumn colors, augmented by slivers of light piercing the fog. Attractive as it is under the sun, Wollyubong’s name comes from the way it reflects light from a different celestial body, translating to ‘where the moon stops’.
