Back in Ancient Time

#summervacay If you’re looking for peace and quiet with a side of history, Songgwangsa Temple in Jeollanam-do is seriously the spot. Tucked away in the middle of a forest, this place feels super calm from the moment you arrive. The walk up to the temple is already relaxing, shady trees, the sound of a stream, and fresh air all around. The temple itself is beautiful but not flashy, just really classic and well-kept. There’s something about the wooden buildings, old stone paths, and mountain views that makes you wanna slow down and just breathe for a bit. Even if you’re not super into temples or history, you’ll still appreciate the peaceful vibe. It’s not crowded either, which makes it feel even more like a hidden gem. Perfect for a chill day trip when you need to clear your head or just escape the noise. Songgwangsa isn’t just pretty, it’s seriously good for the soul.
