This week I went to Suwon and decided to explore the area. I found a temple and old fortress, Doksanseong. It was a bit grueling to walk up the hill in the heat. I didn't realize the temple was so far away from the road. I found a small temple with a little stone pagoda in the front with many small statues of Buddha on it. I went inside the temple and saw many small statuettes of Buddha that all looked the same. They were white and each had an electric light in front of them to resemble a candle.
I walked around the wall and saw some good views of Suwon. I do think Suwon is a nice area.
I later had some doengjang jiggae at the mall near Suwon station. It was good food and I would eat there again. At 6,000 won it wasn't bad.
I have thought of moving outside of Seoul to find fresher air and less crowding.
