Looking out towards Mount Sorak (설악산) from the bottom cable car station in Seoraksan National Park (설악산국립공원), South Korea. The cable car was installed by Dr. Gi-Sup Lee in 1971 and is used by many tourists to visit the area of Soraksan known as Gwongeumseong. The Sorak cable car service is operated from 7am to 6 or 6:30pm, and departs every 7 minutes.
From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seoraksan_National_Park):
The nature reserve protects an area of 163.6 square kilometers and contains many notable high peaks measuring over 1,200 meters above sea level including the highest peak of Soraksan, Daecheongbong, which has an altitude of 1,708 meters. The nature reserve contains mountain ranges of dissected granite and gneiss and is characterized by spectacular rocky hills and ridges. The magnificent natural beauty of Soraksan and the mountain ridges is due to these geographical features. - Tags / Keywords:
