Bulguksa

An extremely old temple that has much importance in the history of Korea. The Joseon dynasty, specifically. It is located near Gyeongju.
















It was raining that day. My leg got kind of wet, I don't really know how.

















There are some national treasures at Bulguksa.

















































"Elegance Mom" and me:
















We drove to the coast, and it was raining, but still we enjoyed the beach and the scenery, and I tried to video the way the mist was coming off the mountain, but it just doesn't translate to video the same. There are some rocks out there in the shallow ocean where there is the tomb of a very special Korean King who helped fight off a Japanese attack and is very famous for it. There is so much history between the Japanese and the Koreans. You can see the tomb when the camera goes all the way to the right.
