Seokguram
(Gyeongju UNESCO itinerary) Seokguram is an artificial grotto constructed of granite that comprises an antechamber, a corridor and a main rotunda. It enshrines a monumental statue of the Sakyamuni Buddha looking out to sea with his left hand in dhyana mudra, the mudra of concentration, and his right hand in bhumisparsa mudra, the earth-touching mudra position. Together with the portrayals of devas, bodhisattvas and disciples, sculpted in high and low relief on the surrounding walls, the statues are considered to be a masterpiece of East Asian Buddhist art. The domed ceiling of the rotunda and the entrance corridor employed an innovative construction technique that involved the use of more than 360 stone slabs.
Bulguksa Temple
(Gyeongju UNESCO itinerary) Bulguksa is a Buddhist temple complex that comprises a series of wooden buildings on raised stone terraces. The grounds of Bulguksa are divided into three areas – Birojeon (the Vairocana Buddha Hall), Daeungjeon (the Hall of Great Enlightenment) and Geungnakjeon (the Hall of Supreme Bliss). These areas and the stone terraces were designed to represent the land of Buddha. The stone terraces, bridges and the two pagodas – Seokgatap (Pagoda of Sakyamuni) and Dabotap (Pagoda of Bountiful Treasures) – facing the Daeungjeon attest to the fine masonry work of the Silla.

Frank Yi was our tour guide for this tour guide on the trip to South Korea . We+ are from Hawaii and this was a "mini" honeymoon" for my wife and I after we both retried from our jobs in June 2023. We had a personalized trip with only our guide and us. Frank was a very friendly and well informed and took us to the King's Tombs, The Choi estate, the Ceramic shop and the UNCEO site # 24 the Buddha and the grotto. This was an experience beyond belief and it was awesome. I highly recommend Frank as an excellent tour guide and perfect access.
