부여 가림성 · Chungnam · Palaces & heritage

Garimseong Fortress is a stone fortress built on the lower reaches of the Geumgang River to protect Sabiseong Fortress, the capital of the Baekje dynasty. The fortress' parking lot is only 200 meters away from the southern entrance, allowing visitors to easily access and enjoy the view from this historical fortress. By ascending the stairway by the rocky cliff, a large tree comes into view. Known to be over 400 years old, this tree is called the "Love tree of Seongheungsan Mountain" and has even made an appearance in the drama "Seodongyo (200)." The fortress is also popular as a sunrise spot, serving as Buyeo-gun’s New Year's Eve festival venue.◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu’s charm - TV series "Hotel Del Luna"From Man-wol’s friendship with Yeon-woo to her anger toward Chung-myung in “Hotel Del Luna,” Buyeo Garimseong Fortress has become a popular social media hotspot.
