/ Central Region / Nak'waam Rock
The bird's-eye
view of the Paengmagang River Valley makes the hike to the oldest
Paekche fortress above Nak'waam Rock (0463)835-3006) well worthwhile.
Nak' waam
Rock is the site of a tragic legend. Some 3,000 women of the Paekche
court leapt to their deaths here of avoid dishonor at the hands
of their enemies during the fall of the Paekche Kingdom. The image
of the women plummeting down in their colorful dresses gave the
place its name, "Rock of Falling Flowers."
