It's neat, so I recommend it when you want to enjoy the autumn foliage and the feeling of fall. The parking lot is also spacious, so it's okay. #Gyeonggi-doTravel

(Lee Seong-bok - The End of That Summer) That summer, the tree, the zinnia, was safe. It didn’t fall over in one storm or the next, and hung red flowers like pouring hail. That summer, I was in the middle of a storm. That summer, my despair hung red flowers like a joke, but it didn’t fall over in several storms. When the tree, the zinnia, fell over, hung on, and burst into flames, the strong flowers covered the narrow yard of two pyeong with blood, and my despair ended like a joke. #citytravel #hwadamforest #summer
