Colorful Daegu

This is what South Korea calls "Colorful Daegu".  This city of over 2.5 million is, in my opinion, one of the most under-appreciated travel destinations in the world.  This south-central city is bustling, full of culture, color and history. Like Seoul, it has a skytower (called the Daegu Tower), mountains to climb, religious sites, the arts and high tech colorful cityscapes.  But unlike Seoul, you don't have nearly the congestion or traffic.

A pretty little walkway on Apsan Mountain.  This is just after exiting the Gondola, this path takes you up the along the top of the mountain.  GREAT hikes in this area!
