A real treasure in the modern city of Seoul. The temple area was larger than I expected, you get to see beautiful buildings, paintings and decorations. It felt quite magic to me, although the weather was bad. The temple has quite some turbulent history, which was surprising to me. Definitely a must visit and it's next to Starfield Coex Mall (popular Starfield Library) and the Psy 강남 스타일 Gangnam Style statue, so you can easily visit some spots in a row.

Probably my fave temple visited in Seoul. Incredibly colourful paper lanterns everywhere so it’s quite cheery. Beautifully coloured statues, and an ongoing ceremony with monks chanting enhanced the experience. Lots of pilgrims and tourists. There’s also a nice walking path behind the pagodas so worth a wander as it’s quite peaceful.

This is an awesome temple. It is a very calming and serene space. I can stay here all day and meditate, contemplate on my life's purpose. This is one of the oldest stone statues of Buddha. It is also situated across from the COEX Mall. This temple is located in the Gangnam District

One of the best temples I have ever visited so far! Very quiet and enriched of history. On top of that, there is a short path where people can actually chill and relax by listening the silence. Loved it

Amazing place within the city. So peaceful and tranquil. Amazing energy and beautiful site to walk around on the meditation paths. I absolutely loved this place. Such a blessing to visit this sacred site. Make sure you go to it.
