Templestay 16 Selected Temples for Foreigners part.1

As you pass through the temple compound, the wind blows, 

sounds of rustling leaves fill your ears.

Hearing the cries of the cicadas echoing through the forest, your mind awakens.

Everything is already complete, just as it is...


Templestay programs allow Korean Buddhism, with its rich history and tradition of 1700 years, to be experienced. Through appreciative participants whose lives have been enriched and broadened by their experience of a traditional culture shaped by Korean Buddhism, Templestay is widely known all over the world and is regularly run by many temples.


Participants can sense the 100-year-old tradition and culture in the very air as they set out on a liberating journey from daily routines to a mountain temple, where the mysterious purifying spirit of community and equality is waiting to envelop them in a thousand-year-old culture, helping them to appreciate the full richness of life.
