• Jogyesa Temple - As the principal temple and district head temple of the Jogye order in Seoul, Jogyesa Temple is the heart of Korean Buddhism. Originally constructed in the late 14th century during the Goryeo period, it was destroyed by fire and rebuilt as Gakwangsa Temple in 1910, thanks to the efforts of esteemed monks like Han Yong-un and Lee Hee-gwang. In 1936, it was designated as the head temple of Korean Buddhism and renamed Tegosa Temple. A purification movement in 1954 aimed to remove Japanese influence and restore traditional Buddhism, resulting in the current Jogyesa Temple.
• Gyeongbokgung Palace - Constructed in 1395 by Yi Seong-gye, the future King Taejo, Gyeongbokgung Palace served as the official palace of the Joseon dynasty. Known as the Northern Palace due to its location, it is considered the most beautiful and largest of the five palaces. Many Joseon kings were crowned here. Although it was destroyed by fire during the Imjin War (1592-1598), it was later restored under Heungseondaewongun during King Gojong’s reign. On Tuesdays, Gyeongbokgung Palace is closed, and visitors can explore Changdeokgung, including the secret garden, instead.
