1월 1일 간절곶에서 해돋이 기다리며 만난 새벽 풍경. 울산 여행

동해안의 또 다른 유명한 해돋이 명소로, 간절곶보다 동쪽에 위치하지만 겨울에는 해가 남쪽에서 뜨기 때문에 간절곶이 먼저 해돋이를 보게 됩니다. 여름에는 호미곶에서 먼저 해돋이를 볼 수 있습니다.

이보다 완벽할 순 없다. 간절곶 해맞이 일출. 울산 울주 여행

Mentioned as another famous sunrise spot, located geographically east of Ganjeolgot. However, due to the sun's southern trajectory in winter, Ganjeolgot sees the sunrise about 1 minute earlier on January 1st.
