After our quick lunch in Busan, off we go to Haedong Yonggunsa Buddhist Temple. Travel distance from Gamcheon Culture Village to these Buddhist Temple is around 22 km. Fortunately, there is no entrance fee here. Open daily from 5.00 am - 7.00 pm. It is a beautiful attraction sits along the coastal area of Gijang-gun.
Attractions here are the Daeungjeon Main Hall, Eight - storey Pagoda, Golden Laughing Buddha and Golden Turtle, Little Buddha, Stupas Chinese Zodiac Animal Statues and 108 stairs and bridge and wishing pond. Very precious to honour and bathing ceremony of Little Buddha. Point to take note, during bathing the Little Buddha, just cleanse with holy water from his shoulder onward, not from head top.
So, aside from seeing the unique religious sites, you will probably love the scenic surrounding because of it coastal section.
100% the best of Busan, great for sightseeing as it is rare to see such a breathtaking architecture. however if you come here for religion, it’s not as rich as other temples
This was one of the most beautiful temples I have ever been to! The views by the sea are spectacular and there is a lot to explore. This is a perfect place to visit to learn about Korean culture and history. You can also go in any season.
This is one of the most beautiful temples I've ever been to! Take the bus and walk uphill for about 10 minutes to get here but the views are worth it! There's a restaurant at the entrance and street food stalls along the way. You can easily spend an hour here.
The seaside temple in the Haeundae-Machine Zhang area of Lushan has a good view and no tickets are charged. Going down the steps, temples with sea views are really rare. It is quiet here, there are not many tourists, it is worth visiting.
such a beautiful place, the views were stunning, the sites were amazing and the people were great.
