Bulguksa Temple

It is one of the most historically and architecturally significant temples in the country and is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Originally built in the 8th century during the Silla Dynasty, Bulguksa Temple has undergone several renovations and expansions over the centuries. The temple complex is beautifully nestled at the foothills of Mount Toham, surrounded by picturesque landscapes and serene natural beauty. Bulguksa Temple showcases exquisite traditional Korean architectural style with intricate wooden structures, colorful paintings, and intricate stone carvings.

Seokguram is an ancient Buddhist cave temple, and is another UNESCO World Heritage Site in the region. It is situated near Bulguksa Temple, with both sites often visited together. Built during the 8th century during the Silla Dynasty, Seokguram is a remarkable example of Buddhist art and architecture from the Unified Silla period. The temple is renowned for its stunning stone-carved statues, including a large seated Buddha statue and numerous bodhisattvas. The main chamber of Seokguram houses a serene and majestic granite Buddha statue, known as "The Seokguram Buddha," which is considered one of the finest masterpieces of Buddhist sculpture in East Asia.

We really enjoyed this tour with an excellent and caring guide Sang Jong (apologies for eventual wrong spelling). Despite the language barrier, we had a lively conversation all the time via Google Translate. Despite the traffic jam due to the national holiday, we got to see everything that was planned in the itinerary. The guide had a very friendly attitude, dropped us off upon request at the bus station and helped us catch the bus to Seoul at the last minute.

Despite bad weather and bad traffic due to the Chuseok holidays, my guide was great! He was kind and friendly even though he needed to use a translation app to converse. He tried to fit as much as possible into the tour even though traffic was at a stand still in some areas. His daughter Eunsoo organized the tour via whatsapp and they both provided places to see after our tour. This is a great tour for anyone who wants to capture the biggest cultural attractions of Gyeongju in one day.

We had a fantastic day with our tour guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many interesting facts throughout the trip. What made the experience even more special was the way he engaged with us personally—we exchanged stories about our home countries, which made the tour feel warm and welcoming. He knew the best routes to take, driving us efficiently and comfortably to each destination. Thanks to his translation app we received all the information in our native language, which was a thoughtful touch and made everything easy to follow. We had plenty of time at each stop and never felt rushed. Overall, it was a well-organized, enriching, and enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!
