Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Breathtaking road on Bugaksan Mountain

Jan 2019 • Solo

It's 2-lane road on Bugaksan Mountain. There's Bugak Palgakjeong on top. Good to spend some time and enjoy breathtaking view.

- No public transportation available. Most people visit by driving. So, this is almost like a hidden gem for locals, too. Walking to the top is not bad. About 30~40 min walk from Sukjeongmun Gate.
- Bugak Palgakjeong is a pavilion with telescopes, a cafe and a restaurant. There's a little supermarket and a good garden to walk around. Northern view of Bukhansan and Pyeongchang-dong is really nice. It's a great place to spend 1~2 hours.
- There are routes to hike Bugaksan Mountain. Kim Shin-Jo Route(route of North Korean terrorists) is easy and nice in the forest.

Bugak Skyway

Nov 2017 • Business

A very nice view of Seoul. We arrive in the late evening passing through the Blue House. It is very cold and therefore don’t go up there without your car!

I note that most of the lights in Seoul seems white colour. Hence, Seoul is like a silver city at night.

driving is suggested

Aug 2017 • Solo

The view up there is simply breathtaking. especially at sunset and night. 100% worth a visit. But i highly suggest you to catch a taxi especially at night when you are heading down hill. Convenient stores and restaurants are also available.

I went up by bus and followed by around 45 minutes on steep road and hiking. As far as i remember, there is no lights AT ALL when hiking towards the Bugak Pavilion. So when i left the pavilion i decided to try another way down the hill.

But unfortunately It is about the same as i went up, not much lights and it really looks creepy and confusing. Finally i decided to walk down the hill alongside the road and it took more than 1 hour 30 minutes before i got back to where i start (Hansung University Station.

So catch a taxi unless you really enjoy night walking at the mountains
