Wow, what a breathtaking sight! 😮 The Haedong Yonggung Temple in Busan is an absolute must-visit destination for anyone traveling to South Korea. As soon as I stepped onto the grounds, I was transported to a world of tranquility and beauty. 🌿The temple itself is a masterpiece of traditional Korean architecture, perched atop a rocky cliff overlooking the stunning East Sea. The vibrant colors and intricate designs of the buildings were a feast for the eyes. 🏯 But let's be real, the real star of the show is the incredible view! 🌊 I could have spent hours just gazing out at the vast expanse of sparkling blue water and towering rocky formations.As I wandered through the temple complex, I couldn't help but feel a sense of peace and serenity wash over me. The sound of the waves crashing against the cliffs was like nature's own symphony. 🎶 And let's not forget the adorable deer that roam freely around the grounds! They were the perfect addition to the already magical atmosphere. 🦌If you're looking for a place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and reconnect with nature, the Haedong Yonggung Temple is an absolute gem. Just don't forget your camera – you'll want to capture every moment of this breathtaking destination! 📷

The statues in Bongeunsa share the same stylistic features as the other statues from the 18th century. Only, they are distinguished by the fact that they are made of wood and that they are smaller in size than others even though they are standing statues. Also, they show humorous and friendly looks instead of the frightening expressions like the Four Heavenly King statues. Recently, a written statement of vows and on the production of the statues, and other relics were retrieved from inside the statues. The written document says the state artists like Yeochan, Sinchal, Seonghyeon, Jeongil, Haeun, and Minhwi produced the statues in 1746.

With the surrounding portrayals of gods, Bodhisattvas and disciples, all realistically and delicately sculpted in high and low relief, it is considered a masterpiece of Buddhist art in the Far East.

I have come here a couple times while I have visited Seoul. The area is lively and there are a lot of restaurants and shops. It’s in a convenient location near other tourist sites such as Jogyesa Temple and Changdeokgung Palace.

My en-route to Yakcheonsa Temple, a hidden gem nestled amidst the breathtaking mountains. The main hall, Daeungjeon, stands as a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship of the past. Intricate details and vibrant colors adorn the hall, while statues of Buddha and Bodhisattvas emanate a sense of serenity.A getaway from the hustle and bustle from the tourists.

无敌幸运星啦
The last stop of the trip to Busan, before going to Gyeongju, I specially came to feel the Buddhist atmosphere in Korea. I needed to transfer again, but it was not complicated at all: after leaving the subway, go along the ramp for 2 minutes to reach the station and take the 90 bus. I saw that everyone got off at the place where they got off the bus was Fanyu Temple. Most of the grandparents came to climb Jinjing Mountain, and they met a Malaysian Chinese couple who went to Fanyu Temple together on the road. There are many believers in the temple, and the hall is full of religious believers who come to recite the scriptures and worship, but they do not feel noisy at all. I think this is the Buddha's pure land! The overall area of the monastery is not large, the layout is the same as the domestic Han Buddhist monastery, and some details are not ingenious. As a famous temple in Korea with historical relics, it is natural to feel the sense of historical age in it. On the way to visit, I happened to meet a monk who could speak Chinese and told the monastery that the dining hall could provide fast food at noon. Because I caught up with the meal, I enjoyed vegetarian food with the faithful after the visit. With awe of Buddhist culture and monasteries, I left Fanyu Temple and ended this trip to Busan.

Very comfortable and suitable for visiting a small place. When you come here to play, you feel a natural atmosphere. It is also a region close to traditional life in Korea. It is quite comfortable.
