Things to see and do Buan 부안

This national park is the only one in the country that offers a mix of mountains and ocean. It is divided into two sections: the Oebyeonsan coastal area and the Naebyeonsan inland mountainous area. In addition to its stunning nature, the main attractions are the Gaeamsa, Naeamsa, Naesosa temples; the Jikso waterfalls and the Guam-ri dolmens. Without exaggeration, this park offers the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets in the whole country! It is a great pleasure to hike there.

First you take a beautiful coniferous path, then you will see a courtyard hall and the monks' houses on the left. The temple was founded in 633 under King Mu of Baekje by the monk Hyegu. It was rebuilt a thousand years later. The main Dae-eungjeon hall has pretty sculptures on the ceiling. It houses the largest Buddhist fresco in Korea, a bodhisattva wearing a white dress. In the courtyard is a 3-storey stupa dating from Goryeo but in the Silla style. It is one of the most famous temples for its temple stay program.
