Destination briefing
Why travelers stop here
There is a small temple halfway up Seodalsan Mountain, overlooking the Han River and Namsan Mountain across the river. It is an open temple where you can watch the flowing river from afar during the day and see the scenery of Namsan Mountain emitting small lights at night. Known as a clear place of practice in harmony with nature, from Seodalsan to Namsan, it is a traditional temple in the city where you can straighten your weary and turbid mind amidst the rapidly changing urban center. It is a cozy temple that unites with local residents through the sound of early morning dawn prayers and shares the time of a day's endurance with the sun. It is an open space in the greenery overlooking the Han River, a place imbued with the Buddha's teachings and the spirit of true practice, and a small but heart-expanded space for local residents.
