South Korea was a vassal state of China in the Ming and Tang Dynasties, so Chinese Buddhism still had a great influence on South Korea. This Museum retains many Buddhist statues, which are worth seeing.
The Buddhist Central Museum is located on the second floor of the Korean Buddhist Cultural Memorial. Walk to Jingjingfu Palace and other ancient palaces, Rensi Cave traditional crafts shops, teahouses, etc., suitable for browsing along the road. The small and tidy facilities in the park create a relaxed and comfortable environment for visitors. On the whole, it's good.
There are more than 6,000 Buddhist statues, Buddhist paintings (Buddhist paintings - paintings related to Buddhism), ceramics and various folk arts and crafts. Among them, there are the most precious cultural property in Korea, such as the Yuequan Yin Picture of Yiqian, No. 1204, the Qingliangshan Hanging Buddha Frame, No. 1210, and the three Amitabha Buddha Hanging Buddha Frames, No. 123, and the Daxiong Hall Mass Picture of the Branch.
This is a famous museum in Korea. It collects a lot of Buddhist-related collections. It has a good environment and modern buildings. It highlights the Buddhist atmosphere in the museum. It takes about an hour to get to the museum. If you are interested in Buddhism, it is an essential place.
It's very artistic. People who like Buddhism can go to see it. But most people in Korea believe in Christianity. It's near Rensi Cave, opposite the largest Buddhist temple in Korea, and the tickets are free.
