Nestled within the lush forest and hills of Tohamsan Mountain sits the Seokguram Grotto, a peaceful sanctuary for all of you wanting a short getaway from city life. This buddhist cave temple was constructed in 751 during the reign of King Gyeong-Deok of the Silla Kingdom. Now, it stands as a quaint yet vibrant gem with the canopy of trees and rocky cliffs surrounding it.

Enjoy breathtaking views of Japan’s skyline as you stroll through the forest to get to the grotto, greeting you with its simple yet vibrant architecture as you arrive, the dimly-lit but majestic interior creating a solemn atmosphere. Masterpieces of east buddhist art can be found throughout the interior with the array of statues and portrayals of buddhist disciples, such as the shining monument of Sakyamuni Buddha seated in the heart of the room.
