Jeondeungsa Temple, Ganghwa Island

Jeondeungsa Temple, located at the foot of Jeongjoksan Mountain, Ganghwa Island, is a temple that preserves a quiet and solid beauty. It is one of the oldest temples in Korea, and since it is located inside Samrangseong Fortress, you can also enjoy walking along the fortress wall.
When you enter the temple grounds, the scenery of old trees and ancient buildings calms your mind. In particular, Daeungbojeon Hall has a neat and elegant beauty, and it is good to walk slowly and savor the history and scenery of the temple. The natural scenery that changes colors with each season is also impressive.
While slowly climbing the gentle uphill road, you feel far away from the hustle and bustle of the world and your mind becomes organized. After touring the temple, it is also recommended to walk along the fortress wall or the surrounding walking trail.
Jeondeungsa Temple is not far from the city center, but it is a place where you can empty yourself and return. It is like a short meditation in itself.
