Bongeunsa Temple 🇰🇷 | Ancient Korea in the Heart of Modern Seoul

Step inside Bongeunsa Temple, a peaceful piece of ancient Korea hidden in the heart of modern Seoul. 🇰🇷 Located in Seoul’s Gangnam district, Bongeunsa is one of the city's best-known Buddhist temples. Founded in 794 during the Silla period, the temple offers an extraordinary contrast between centuries of Korean Buddhist tradition and the skyscrapers of modern Seoul. In this journey, we enter through the traditional temple gate and slowly explore the grounds, architecture, lanterns, courtyards and peaceful atmosphere of Bongeunsa before reaching one of its most impressive sights — the monumental Mireuk Daebul (Maitreya Buddha). What makes Bongeunsa especially fascinating is its location. Just beyond the temple grounds rises one of the most modern areas of Seoul, creating a remarkable meeting point between ancient Korea and the South Korea of today. 🎥 Filmed in Seoul, South Korea 📍 Bongeunsa Temple — Gangnam, Seoul 🇰🇷 Memories Hunter Pro — Nature, Wildlife & Travel Photography If you enjoy discovering remarkable places around the world through photography and cinematic travel videos, consider subscribing and joining the journey.
