Greetings community. In my past post I shared three places to visit if you go to Korea, today I will share three other places to go. As I told you in my previous publication, my love for Korea was born through the dramas, in it I can see the love in its culture and traditions, despite the technological era and the advances to which it is very much at par, not they forget as many of us their roots, that is why I share these three places where magic still remains in my opinion, of their ancestors
Suwon and Hwaseong Fortress
There is no excuse for not visiting this city whose fortress is included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites. It can be reached by subway, since the trip from Seoul only lasts one hour. Once in Suwon kilometers of built walls take advantage of the undulations of the land. You can walk on them and walk the perimeter of the old city. Observation towers, monumental doors and guard posts are the elements that you will discover. Once you have seen the wall, nothing better than going through the streets of the old city to visit the sanctuary and the palace guarded by soldiers dressed in the same costumes that they used at the time of the kings of Joseon, founders of Suwon. After the cultural visit, do not forget to enjoy a walk through alleys in which the protagonist is urban art, or sit in one of the cozy cafés near the palace.
Bulguksa temple
20 minutes from the center of the Korean city of Gyeongju is Mount Tomamsan, and on one of its slopes is this temple. It was built between the 6th and 8th centuries on different stone terraces. The upper part symbolizes the land of the Buddha and is attached to the lower level, the mundane part of the temple, by four staircases under which there was once a canal. At its peak, it had 80 buildings. Today only a handful of them are conserved and those of wood are recent reconstructions. It is a very popular place among Koreans who come to him to enjoy the environment and know one of the most beautiful temples in the country.
Haedong Yonggungsa Temple
In South Korea the temples are in the mountains. But there are some exceptions, such as the attractive Haongong Yonggungsa built on a cliff by the sea. To get to it, you must first pass by large statues that represent the 12 zodiac signs of oriental culture, leave behind a pagoda, go down a good number of stairs and cross a bridge. During the tour you must enjoy the views and let yourself be enveloped by the sound of the waves mixing with the Buddhist songs that come out of the main pavilion of the temple.
