Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Bulguksa Temple is the core of Silla culture, a classic of Silla Buddhist art, and a world cultural heritage. 1440 years ago, in the 22nd year of King Faheung of Silla, in order to maintain the stability of the country and the people, Bulguksa Temple was built, and it has been repaired several times since then. In Bulguksa Temple, walking up the ridge, you can see the famous Grotto Nunnery, which houses the larger Sitting Buddha statue in the east facing the East China Sea. Seven cultural relics including the Duobao Pagoda, Sakyamuni Pagoda, Blue Cloud Bridge and two golden bronze Buddhas in the temple are listed as national treasures of Korea. In 1995, Bulguksa Temple was listed as a World Heritage Site along with the Seokguram Temple to the east.

With the surrounding portrayals of gods, Bodhisattvas and disciples, all realistically and delicately sculpted in high and low relief, it is considered a masterpiece of Buddhist art in the Far East.
A must-visit place to visit from Busan. The temple dates back to the Silla dynasty and has such a rich history! Everything is well-preserved and there are great places to take pictures. You can visit at any season!
There is a parking space at the door, which is very convenient, and it feels comfortable from the beginning of the door, and the environment is divided into 5 points! The scenery is good, the air is good, but the merchant service in the temple is average, I asked where the bathroom is, and I ignored it.
One of the oldest temple built during Silla dynasty, listed as one of the UNESCO Heritage area, perfect spot to view autumn foliage.
A temple rich in history build during Shilla period, which is around 1400 years old, a UNESCO heritage site. Extremely pretty during autumn period.
