Bongeunsa Temple

This weekend, Sagar, Park, and I went to Bongeunsa Temple in Gangnam. Before I came to South Korea, I read a few travel books about what to see in Seoul and other areas of the country. I remember bookmarking the page with this temple on it, so it was really great to finally get a chance to go! 

Buddha's birthday is coming up, so the whole temple was decorated with lanterns that represent different wishes. One color represents wishes for family members, another color for spouses, etc.

A "national treasure" of Korea.

Stopping for a drink of water from the communal ladle.

I'm having too much fun these days! Someone stop me!
