Jogyesa Buddhist Temple, established in 1935 and located in downtown Seoul, serves as the center of Zen Buddhism in Korea. As you approach from the bustling streets of Jongno towards Anguk Subway Station, the temple unfolds as a peaceful retreat marked by its ancient white pine and 500-year-old locust and baeksong trees at the Daeungjeon, the main temple building. Visitors enter through the "Iljumun," a symbolic gate that divides the mundane world from the sacred realm of Buddha, where they can experience spiritual tranquility and admire the splendid golden statues.

After visiting Jogyesa Temple, you will pass by the Presidential Blue House, distinguished by its iconic blue tiles and beautifully set against the backdrop of Mt. Bukak.

Step into the grandeur of Korea’s royal heritage. Built in 1395, Gyeongbokgung is Seoul’s largest and most iconic palace — once the heart of the Joseon Dynasty.

Step inside the National Folk Museum of Korea, located within the grounds of Gyeongbokgung Palace, and explore the everyday lives of Korean people throughout history. Through thousands of artifacts, interactive exhibits, and life-sized replicas, the museum vividly illustrates how Koreans lived, worked, and celebrated across the centuries.

It’s a fascinating way to experience Korea’s cultural heritage and see how tradition shaped the modern nation.

Namsan Hanok Village, located at the base of Namsan Mountain in the heart of Seoul, is a cultural haven that transports visitors back to the Joseon Dynasty.
