Bulguksa
Temple |
|
|
When
it comes to Korean cultural heritage, we cannot omit the Bulguksa
Temple and the Seokguram Grotto. Bulguksa epitomizes the architecture
of the golden age of Korean Buddhism, the Unified Silla period (668-935
A.D.). Located in the ancient Silla capital of Gyeongju, the temple
is surrounded by other cultural treasures from the same period,
such as the Cheongungyo and Baegungyo Birdges and the Dabotap and
Seokgatap Pagodas. The Seokguram Grotto is another magnificent local
monument to Buddhist philosophy and national pride.
