Jogyesa Temple

#seoul Jogyesa Temple is a renowned Buddhist temple located in the heart of Seoul, South Korea. It is quite a peculiar structure when I first encountered it, it must have been the first or only temple that we have seen in our entire trip in korea that had a signboard in Chinese characters which attracted me to go in. Beyond just the buddha statues and the twelfth zodiacs of the Chinese horoscope, what captured my eyes first is the vibrant flowers that are spread around the garden, this temple that is surrounded by the busy streets of seoul really makes you feel at peace and relaxed no matter how busy the outside of the temple is.
