In deep valleys of Mt. Kuwol there are many waterfalls and pools including the Ryongyon Falls with clear rainbow in water haze and the Samhyongje (Three Brothers) Falls.
The scenery of Mt. Kuwol is beautiful in all seasons. Superb in particular is its autumn scenery in September when tree leaves turn red and yellow. Hence the name--Kuwol (September).
Seen on the peaks
are evergreen needle-leaf trees mixed with scarlet-tinged broad-leaved trees, which is reminiscent of the flowers embroidered on a green silk.
The autumnal tints of Mt. Kuwol also add beauty to the antique remains.
