At the end of a forest path on Bukhansan stands a temple where practitioners from around the world once sat in meditation. Founded in 1522, Hwagyesa was restored with the patronage of Prince Regent Heungseon Daewongun, and here Zen Master Seung Sahn opened an international Seon center where blue-eyed monks trained. Walk slowly through grounds where only birdsong and wind chimes remain, meditate, and find peace of mind.
