Gapsa-ro, Gyeryong-myeon, Gongju

A temple more than a thousand years old on the northwest side of Gyeryongsan. The long forest approach turns red in autumn. An old saying ranks Magoksa for spring and Gapsa for autumn. Behind the temple a trail passes Yongmun Falls and climbs to the Nammae Pagodas and Donghaksa. The valley stays cool even in summer.
