November, deep in autumn.
The Jusanji area in Cheongsong, Gyeongsangbuk-do,
is adorned with beautiful autumn foliage.
Located in Juwangsan National Park,
Jusanji is a representative autumn travel destination in Gyeongbuk,
where the calm lake meets vibrant autumn colors.
Especially in the early morning, mist rises over the lake,
offering a picturesque view like a watercolor painting.
The Jusanji parking lot is about a 10 to 15-minute walk to the reservoir.
The trail has a gentle slope,
making it easy for people of all ages to enjoy the autumn scenery.
Currently, environmental improvement work is taking place near the entrance,
which may cause some areas to appear somewhat chaotic.
Autumn has also arrived along the path leading to Jusanji.
Yellowing leaves and red foliage line the way,
while fallen leaves cover the ground,
creating a unique autumn atmosphere.
Around the lake, beautiful views unfold between the branches.
Sunlit yellow and red leaves reflect on the calm surface,
showcasing the beautiful colors created by nature.
Jusanji, completed in 1721, is famous for its willow trees
that grow in the water.
The ancient willows and surrounding forests
form a unique landscape.
In autumn, the added mist creates an even more mystical scenery.
There are resting areas along the walking path,
perfect for enjoying the autumn breeze under the colorful trees.
Jusanji can be explored in about an hour,
making it a great spot for a light autumn outing.
Near the lake, there is a viewing deck
where you can admire the willows and the surrounding mountains up close.
Observing fish swimming below the surface
is another delightful experience.
The biggest charm of Jusanji is its willows growing in the water.
The unique shapes of the trees and their reflections on the surface
create a landscape that is hard to find in other reservoirs.
On November 3, the foliage at Jusanji was about 70 to 80 percent colored.
The sight of morning sunlight filtering through the red leaves was particularly impressive.
Depending on the temperature and weather,
you can expect even deeper autumn colors during the first weekend of November.
Visiting Jusanji early in the morning allows you to encounter mist rising over the lake.
As the sunlight filters through the mist,
it beautifully envelops the willows and surrounding scenery.
However, the occurrence of mist may vary depending on weather conditions.
As time passes and the mist gradually lifts,
the reflections of the autumn-colored mountains on the lake become clearer.
Jusanji showcases different charms in each season,
but it is particularly beautiful in autumn.
If you're planning an autumn foliage trip in Gyeongbuk this fall,
consider visiting Jusanji for a leisurely walk in serene nature.
