It's an active Buddhist Temple and a home to the International Zen Centre, located at the base of Bukan mountain short 30 min. subway/bus trip from the heart of Seoul.

Go on Sunday and get a free vegan 'Monk Lunch' between 11.30-12.30 on the ground floor of the main building

After lunch there is an intro to beginners at 12.30 upstairs at the Zen Center. Worth the 30 minutes cross-legged sitting on a cushion :o)

Then to streach out a little, take an easy hike up to the mountain spring. Entrance just before the Temple's - follow the small path on the left, curving towards the right around the hill, (don't go straight on) It's a lovely walk.

I can't think of a more peaceful way to spend a Sunday in Seoul.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22396
