Overlooking Gwangju: Mudeungsan Mountain 》 The Origins of Domestic Tourism: The Former Tourist Hotel in Mudeungsan Mountain

Story

  • Located in Wonhyogyegok Valley of Mudeungsan Mountain are three buildings, which were established in 1959 as a Western-style cabin hotel. To promote the tourist industry after the Korean War (1950-1953), the Republic of Korea government established recreational facilities at three major scenic sites, namely Seoraksan Mountain in Gangwon-do Province, Seogwipo of Jejudo Island, and Mudeungsan Mountain in Gwangju. The Seoraksan and Seogwipo facilities no longer remain, having been destroyed by fire. The tourist hotel in Mudeungsan Mountain became a very popular honeymoon destination in the 1960s and 1970s and operated until the late 1990s. In the 1980s, it was also used as a secret gathering place for participants of the Democratization Movement. Among the original six buildings, only three remain, including the main building.
