Geumosan (North Gyeongsang)

About

Geumosan is a mountain of North Gyeongsang Province, eastern South Korea. It has an elevation of 977 metres. It is notably connected to South Korean president Park Chung Hee, as Park's birthplace is to its immediate east. A number of monuments (with some having been defaced due to Park's controversial legacy) to Park exist on the mountain.
