Day 84: Lost in the Grass

My trip was filled with some of the most unexpected finds, both natural and man-made. This particular one is located in 순천 (Suncheon), one of the southern most cities in Korea. The above picture was taken right after sunset of the Suncheon bay (순천만). It's a naturally made bay as the water level is quite low. The city of Suncheon actually reminds me of Kobe in Japan primarily because of its geographical location: mountains to the back with the city overlooking the sea. The reeds stretch for miles, as far as the eye can see, and the mud that holds them in place are home to countless crabs that you can easily see as soon as the sun begins to go down. This city, much larger than I initially expected, has some amazing food, including 오리불고기, or duck bulgogi. It was the last stop in my trip and the perfect ending to a perfect trip.
