[Princess] Magoksa Temple, a treasure of the princess where history and tranquility coexist.

๐Ÿ“ Magoksa Temple ยท Gongju, South Chungcheong Province Magoksa Temple, an ancient temple founded during the reign of King Uija of Baekje. Located at the foot of Taehwasan Mountain, it's a popular Gongju destination, offering a combination of easy trekking and temple tours. Passing through the Haetalmun Gate at the entrance, you'll immediately be greeted by the Daegwangbojeon Hall and the five-story stone pagoda. This pagoda, influenced by Tibetan Lamaism, has a unique crown-like shape at its top! Magoksa Temple is also a historical site where independence activist Kim Gu resided. Within the temple grounds, there's a walking path called the "Baekbeom Meditation Trail," perfect for a moment of reflection. Later in the afternoon, the temple's lights come on one by one, enveloping the silence and offering a truly healing experience. It's definitely worth recommending as a day trip from Seoul ๐Ÿ™Œ ๐Ÿ“ Travel Tips Transportation: Bus 770 from Gongju Intercity Bus Terminal โ†’ Approximately 1 hour Attractions: Haetalmun Gate, Daegwangbojeon Hall, Five-Story Stone Pagoda, Simgeomdang Hall, Baekbeom Meditation Trail Seasonal Recommendations: Fall foliage ๐Ÿ‚, Winter snowscape โ„๏ธ #AdventureMoment #Magoksa
