Escape the energy of Gangnam and step into the serene world of Bongeunsa Temple, a spiritual haven nestled right in the heart of the city. As you wander the grounds, the scent of incense and the low hum of chanting will replace the city noise, offering a truly peaceful retreat. Don't miss the awe-inspiring 23-meter-tall statue of the Maitreya Buddha; its calming presence against the backdrop of modern skyscrapers is a sight to behold. The walk through the temple complex is a gentle one, with some minor inclines and stairs leading to different halls and viewpoints.
