A little closer
Hoapsa is a Buddhist temple on the slopes of Hoamsan in Geumcheon-gu. Its setting brings together temple grounds and the wooded hills of southwestern Seoul.
The approach includes an uphill section, so plan your route and footwear accordingly. Respect worship and follow local guidance on entering halls or taking photographs.
