Balwangsan Cable Car service starts at Dragon Plaza Food Court on the 2nd level in yongpyong resort in Korea.
It is a very popular service and is busy at every time of the day. Luckily for us, it was not too crowded.
The cable car travels to a peak which is at an altitude of around 1458m. The cable car travels a distance of about 3km and travels at a speed of 5m/s.

Unfortunately, because of the strong wind during my visit, they closed it so I just took some photos there. Make sure to dress warmly because it was so freezing there. Maybe it was around -20 degrees celcius during my visit. If you like skiing, you can go down by skiing. The queue for going down is not as long as the queue for going up. The view at the top is...
