 mountain, park

Yudalsan, or Yudal Moutain is only 228m high. Despite this, the mountain boasts a panoramic view of the entire city of Mokpo and the sea.

At the summit of the mountain visitors can find Nojeokbong Peak (노적봉) where a statue of Admiral Yi Sunsin stands – this is the landmark where admiral Yi is said to have fooled and drove away the Japanese troops by stacking straw thatches over the rocks making their small army seem like a much larger one

There is also a pavilion, the April 19th Memorial Tower, a monument with lyrics to the song ‘Mokpo’s Tears’, a Buddhist temple, a sculpture park exhibiting some 100 pieces of sculpture, an orchid park and the Dalseong Park with many things to see.
