It was a second day when we visited Cheongrueongpo Area which was well known for the exile place for Danjong the 6th king.
Danjong was the grandson of the Great King Sejong, as I posted before he invented Korean Alphabet Hanguel.
Danjong was a son of the first son(king Munjong) of King Sejong.
Munjong had a health problem and died young.
His son Danjong succeeded king’s reign at 11 years old.
At that time his uncle wanted to become a king.
Finally king Danjons’s uncle did a coup and seized political power.
King Danjong was sent to the exile in Cheonryeongpo in Gangwondo province far from Seoul.
Chdongreyongpo looked an island of land, even today we needed to take a ship to get there.
Behind of Cheongryeongpo was covered with high mountains and there was no way to get in Cheongryeongpo.
Theres was a stone warning signal "never get closer here"
The reason we went to Cheongryeongpo was for taking photos of flowers of azalea.
They told me the azaleas in cheongryeongpo were so beautiful.
When I heard of the azalea’s beauty in cheongryeongpo, it reminded me the death of King Danjong.
King Danjong was killed in the age of 16 years old by his uncle.
Everybody was busy to take the photos of flowers, meanwhile I walked around the house of King Danjong where he had lived for his last years.
Queen of King Danjong at same age of King Danjong had lived for her all life with courtesy bowing to the direction of cheongryeongpo for dead king Danjong.
So it was the saddest love history in korean history.
The resident place of King Danjong was humble. I took the some photos of house.
There were maneking
There was a stone mannikin for king Danjong.
There I found the interesting thing. The pines leaned slightly to the east.
The east direction was Seoul where his queen had waited for him.
It is really sad that his own uncle killed him. I think when your own blood relation cheated you it was very heart breaking.

It is a good thing to know about the history of King Danjong in Cheongrueongpo and he was a wise King indeed but greed for power by his uncle is like something what is happening to some of the governments now. But I am glad that the place was just pristine in its condition and the mannequins just makes it life-like in there.

Was really interesting to read. Actually I got for myself from this post a lot of new information + I did not knew that the pines can lean to one side or another. That is something new and exciting for me.
Such an interesting history, I wish all these things were much more discussed. Thank you for such a great and educational post!

Nice historical story.
The Hunger andxauest for political powers makes an uncle exile on of his own, too bad. But all the same, power is not a question of what the conscience feel right or wrong but rather what the Hunger and question longs for.

A sad and interesting story, so curious that it happens to me that the king's early death can not be as chance as an illness.
Stories like these remind us that people always have twisted feelings that blind reason; and that for reasons of destiny, in one way or another, they invite us to remember them over time.
Thanks for the story @slowwalker and very beautiful scenery.

At times I feel that the politics than was worst than what it is now and we can understand why this field has always been so dirty. Its not some problem of the new generation but this is kind of flowing since centuries. The hunger for power is the key issue to all the problems in the world.
