Hyeonchungsa Shrine


Hyeonchungsa Shrine, say that three times fast, is also a short drive from Camp Humphreys.  It was on of the places Jaxon and I visited many times.  It is expansive and lush with bright green grass so kids can run freely without bumping into other patrons.  There are multiple destination "sights" to see including the high stairs leading up to the shrine itself.

There is an archery range to try your luck at the ancient Soldiers weapon of choice on certain days and times. An instructor is present to make are you don't accidentally shoot your battle buddy, or someone else's. The "smaller representation" of a turtle ship is pretty cool.  It is so named for the hard shell covering the deck to protect Soldiers from arrows, and prevent being boarded. It is a lot of steps walking this great place, and a lot of stairs if you choose.  Since its pretty hilly and vast its more of a day trip.
