A 60 m rock hill at the foot of Mt. Yudalsan. Legend says Admiral Yi Sun-sin covered it in straw so it looked like a mountain of army rice, and stirred white clay into the sea to look like rice-washing water. The enemy supposedly backed off. Look up and see if it still reads as a rice stack. The sculpture park beside it makes an easy slow walk.
