Juwangsan National Park, National park in North Gyeongsang, South Korea.

Juwangsan National Park spans 105 square kilometers across Cheongsong and Yeongdeok counties, featuring granite peaks, sedimentary formations, and eight marked hiking trails.

The park's establishment in 1976 marked the designation of South Korea's twelfth national park, preserving the region's geological heritage and mountain ecosystems.

Daejeonsa Temple, constructed in 672, stands at the park entrance and contains multiple halls dedicated to Buddhist practices and mountain spirits.

The park maintains a daily visitor limit of 1,350 people and requires advance reservations through the official booking system for entry and hiking permits.

The Juwang Valley contains distinct columnar rock formations and three-tiered waterfalls, leading to its recognition as a UNESCO Global Geopark in 2017.
