On the way home from the Saryangdo trip, we went to Goseong dinosaur footprint park and Maisan Tapsa Temple. Both were nice little stops to finish off a great weekend.

Like many things in Korea, the dinosaur park was a bit cheesy. There were giant fake dinosaurs, playgrounds, and of course ice cream (Koreans love them some ice cream), but just passed the all of that were some pretty cool geological features. The best part was the fossilized dinosaur footprints. Neato!

Dinosaur footprints! (And an awesome fanny pack)

| Tried one of these out... |

| They even had a slide! Maybe cheesy can be cool too! |
After the dinosaur park, we headed off to Maisan Tapsa Temple. The bus let us off in a crowded parking lot. Then it was a nice little walk over to the temple. Along the way we passed some food vendors and little shops. It was pretty cool.

The Temple is home to large rock pagodas (read piles). They were constructed over a hundred years ago by one man. He built them all using natural stone and no mortar. Impressive-uh!
Found these gems on the walk back. Poop themed children's toys!
