Ppyojoksan (Bojuksan)

Bogildo, belonging to Wando County of the Jeonnam-Gwangju Integrated Special City, is the stage where Gosan Yun Seon-do's 『Eobusasisa』, which begins with 'As the east wind blows gently, the waves gather,' was created. In Boong-ri at the southwestern end of Bogildo, where there are many historic sites related to Yun Seon-do, rises a peak named Ppyojoksan or Bojuksan (195 m). The villagers call it Ppyojoksan because it looks as if cow horns have been cut off, and to properly see the sharp shape of the mountain, you must look from Mangkkut Observatory before entering Boong-ri. Ppyojoksan changes appearance depending on the viewing position, to the point of being mysterious, and when you reach the summit, the horizon spread out before your eyes and Jeju Island and Chuja Island faintly visible in the distance create a spectacular view. Ppyojoksan has a dense growth of tall camellia forest, and from the summit, on clear days, even Hallasan can be seen. It is called Boong Cheomgoeam among the 10 scenic views of Bogildo. On the nearby Boong-ri beach, there is the beautiful Boong-ri Dinosaur Egg Beach, where round sea pebbles like dinosaur eggs replace the sandy beach.
