JEJU TOURISM ORGANIZATION'S TRAVEL

Recently and with the help of TV shows the idea of doing a temple stay for vacation has started to become popular. Many visitors use their holidays to have this kind of experience. On Jeju Island there are a few places to do a temple stay. Gwaneumsa, Gwangmyeongsa, and Yakcheonsa are all such places. These stays are also becoming linked with packages allowing the visitor to go to nearby attractions or hike an Olle route. Shall we have a look at Gwaneumsa first? This temple is located up on the slopes of Halla Mountain in Aradong. It is the main temple for the Korean Buddhist Jogye Order on the island. We do not know who the founder was, but we do know it was demolished by King Suk-jong during the Joseon Dynasty. Later the temple was rebuilt in 1912 as Beobjeongam. As the followers increased the name changed to Gwaneumsa. However in April 1948 it was burnt down and not reconstructed until 1968.
