Top Things to do In Icheon 2021

"The largest cathedral in Korea, this is a main spot in Myeong-dong. Walk a block from the bustling shopping district and you'll be in the calm recluse of this Catholic church. The growth of Catholicism has an interesting history in the Republic and some of the paintings inside depict the early martyrs of the late 19th century. The current Pope has been here. There's a little gift shop and garden in the back worth exploring."

"This temple was amazing! A real highlight of my trip, and completely free! I would highly recommend visiting at night to view all the laterns ️"

"Jongmyo is a Confucian shrine dedicated to the perpetuation of memorial services for the deceased kings and queens of the Korean Joseon Dynasty. Jongmyo is located near to Changdeokgung and Changgyeonggung. The traditional musical performance Jongmyo jeryeak is held each year."

"This temple is really beautiful. It's definitely worth a look whether you're religious or not, plus it's a free attraction -- pay attention to the exterior's colors along the roof. Take off your shoes before going inside to pray -- they have cushions available for you to kneel on and I saw a few people praying with Korean prayer books. Do note there is no photography inside and you should keep chatter to a minimum to respect others praying and meditating."

"Shenle Temple is an ancient temple with a magnificent scale and beautiful surrounding environment. Now the temple is full of quite old buildings with historical significance."

"The place where devout believers must go. When I went, I saw too many crying people, believers who hugged each other and said I love you, and some were sleeping (the pastor said that they had just entered the church)"

"Longmen Temple is located halfway up the mountainside of Longmen Mountain. Two Buddha statues and eight Bodhisattva statues are enshrined in the temple. There is also a ginkgo tree in the courtyard of Longmen Temple, which is more than a thousand years old."

"Although the East Temple is small, there is a vibrant second-hand market on weekends. You can find second-hand sports equipment like baseball bats or vinyl records. The temple is more than 400 years old outside of Heungin Gate. It is dedicated to Guan Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. There are many Chinese couplets on the building,"

"As we all know, the first religion in Korea is Christianity, so churches are really everywhere, and Yeouido is no exception. The largest church is the pure gospel church in Yeouido. You can see the white cross from far away"

"Obviously, only female monks in Jinkuan Temple are allowed to live here. The site is wide and surrounded by gorgeous red pine. All areas are clean and tidy, and views on Buhan Mountain abound. There is also a small tea house under the thatched roof, you can take a half-day tour of Seoul."
