Day 30 - The Great Wall Of Cheongju

On Sunday we went to the Fortress of Sang-dang-san-seong (상당산성) which is the mountain fortress of Cheongju, it is on Mount Uam. We took a taxi to get there but it still took half an hour. When we got there we had to climb up the mountain to get to the fortress which was tiring to climb. When we arrived at the top we found the great wall of Cheongju, so we decided to walk along it (bad mistake) but we only got about one tenth of the way along before turning back. After that we walked down to the town of Sang-dang-san-seong. Next when we got to the village we were given free seeds, we ate them. Finally we got a taxi and went home.
