Provincial Monument
Ginkgo Tree of Hongsan Gaeksa, Buyeo
부여 홍산객사 은행나무
The Hongsan Gaeksa (government guesthouse) building dates from 1836, but the ginkgo is 750 years old, so a guesthouse seems to have stood here since before the Joseon era. The tree is about 20 m tall with a root circumference of about 11 m.
