The Bulguksa temple in the sacred city of Gyeongju (South Korea)
Gyeongju is one of the most sacred buddhist sites in Korea. It is a Unesco world heritage site with many beautiful temples with colorful wood statues and amazing gardens.
Bulguksa: Symbol of Korean Buddhism
유네스코 등록 문화재 소개: 불국사
Buddhism has a long and storied history in Korea, the home of nearly a thousand Buddhist temples. But if you had to pick one to represent the country's Buddhist heritage, it'd probably be the Bulguksa Temple in Gyeongju, Gyeongsangnamdo Province.
In this weekly special, our Kim Jung-soo presents the history and beauty of this ancient site - Bulguksa, Korea's UNESCO World Heritage.
Buddhism was introduced to Korea in the 5th century and spread quickly through the country.
In the year 528, the Bulguksa temple in Gyeongju was founded during the reign of King Beopheung of the Shilla dynasty... as a sanctuary for his queen to pray for the well-being of her country.
It was never intended to be a building of major importance, being eight times smaller than other temples of its age.
After multiple restorations, Bulguksa was finally designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1995, receiving belated praise for its architectural vision and delicate craftsmanship.
Despite its humble beginnings, Bulguksa is now one of the most well-recognized temples in Korea. It is also home to seven national treasures, including Dabotap.
Instantly recognizable, the Dabotap pagoda is designated as Korea's national treasure number 20. It's also featured on the Korean 10-won coin.
The stone tower symbolizes the complex and transitory nature of the world.
Dabotap's ornateness is perhaps even more pronounced juxtaposed as it is to national treasure 21, the simpler, more conservative Seokgatap pagoda.
The pair symbolize the essence of Buddhism, which strives for a harmonious balance in life while navigating its contradictions and extremes.
To see the towers at Bulguksa, visitors must first cross a stone bridge that symbolically connects the physical world and the realm of spirits.
They then pass through a gate called Chunwangmun , guarded by four fierce-looking gods.
Next, they climb a broad stone stairway called Cheongungyo leading to the main hall of Daeungjeon, also known as the Hall of Great Enlightenment.
I was an architecture major back in the day. It really is amazing that our ancestors built these delicate wooden and stone structures. All these buildings tell a timeless story full of meaning and poetic beauty.
In addition to the two towers infront of it, the temple also enshrines the Sakyamuni Buddha, and serves as the official site for major Buddhist ceremonies.
Daeungjeon lies at the center of Bulguksa, and is surrounded by four other halls:
Museoljeon, Gwaneumjeon, Birojeon and lastly, Geuknakjeon. Geuknakjeon has one more attraction: a gold-colored ornamental-pig remained hidden behind the the building's wooden signboard until it was recently rediscovered.
Visitors were anxious to touch a replica of the golden pig for good luck. And despite the August heat, the temple still welcomed a steady flow of curious onlookers.

Real Korean city that isn't Seoul. We are in Gyeong-ju, Bulkuksa temple !
Bulguksa Temple is a representative relic of Buddhist culture from the Silla kingdom. The temple was built in 528 during the 15th year of King Beop-Heung's reign (514-540) to wish for pease and prosperity for all. It was later rebuilt in 751 by Kim Dae-Seong. Unfortunately, the temple caught fire during the Imjin War (1592-1598). After this time, the temple suffered serious damage and was often the target of robbers.
Starting in 1920, the temple has undergone continual restoration work. The temple now holds seven national treasures, a number of additional important heritages, and along with the nearby Seokguram Grotto was designated a World Cultural Heritage Site by UNESCO in December 1995.

Saturday was beautiful. The weather was simply great, and it would have been perfect if not for the slight layer of dust in the air.
We spent the afternoon bumming around the temple and Malli and Liam enjoyed the walk, surprisingly.

MY TRIP TO KOREA: BULGUKSA TEMPLE & KDRAMA MUSEUM | ep. 10
We got up super early to go hike up to the Bulguksa Temple in Gyeongju city! Afterwards, we went to a K-Drama museum :D and we also were able to visit the royal tomb of King Naemul... it was such a long and tiring day... but of course it was fun and very much worth it *more info below*
So I don't know exactly when we had to wake up but we were all out of energy haha... This was actually the very first outing we had where it was actually raining! and by raining, it was like sprinkling... at least to me as a Washingtonian who experiences rain nearly every day haha. We all walked around it in ponchos tho :D very fun. Alright, so first we went the Bulguksa Temple, a buddhist temple complex located on the slopes of mount Toham! It was such a marvelous place and its location was just remarkable and beautiful. There were some parts I wasn't able to record out of respect for the buddhists' practices. Oh, and some of us even paid to ring the temple bell... also very fun.
We then went to the royal tomb of King Naemul, which was located underground, underneath a big hill. It was pretty astounding to see all the artifacts (well they were replicas for the public but still) that were saved for several centuries.
Afterwards, we went to a K-Drama museum and I think me and Caysie were the most excited out of everyone haha. I love Korean dramas, and getting to visit a museum exhibit about dramas just made me really happy. I really loved that it was mainly historical dramas that were featured, because those are my absolute favorite!
And then we ended our day with Korean bbq and headed back to our hotel to pack up and return to Songdo... all in all, it was a very eventful, exhausting, and eye-opening weekend for us. We all were tired by the end of it, from all our activities and long bus trips... but it's experiences like these that are probably the most memorable to us~
