[2025 Gyeongju Attraction] Travel Guide for Bulguksa Temple (Updated Mar)

📍Address: 385, Seoul 🕰️Time: 9:00-17:30 💰Tickets: Free 📌UNESCO World Cultural Heritage 🍁Mid-late October to November Recommendation: Visit Bulguksa Temple in spring or autumn Because you can enjoy cherry blossoms and maple leaves. Especially the red leaves are in full bloom 🍁 dyeing the temple red You can especially feel the charming charm of autumn! Take bus number 10, 11, or 700 and get off at the "불국사" stop There is a little distance to climb the hill or stairs to the door! But if you join a tour group, you may be taken directly to the door, because there are many tour buses~ ✨When you come to the "Paradise Palace", you must look for the golden pig 🐷 and the lucky pig 🐷 It is said that it will bring wealth and blessings🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑 There is one in front of the yard. Don’t forget to touch the golden pig before putting it in your pocket! The other one is hidden behind a plaque. You can find it if you stand farther away! Korean temples use hanging lanterns to pray for blessings, and visitors can visit and worship in the temple🙏 Behind a temple, there are piles of small stone towers. I also stacked up stones and made a wish, hoping it would come true😏 #koreatrip #gyeongju #bulguksatemple #GyeongjuTourism #Gyeongju #GyeongjuFreeTravel #경주핫플 #경주 #불국사 #Bulguksa Temple #Temple #Korea #Korea #WorldCulturalHeritage #Seokgyapagoda #Dapagoda #100TravelWays #100StoreExplorePlan #ViewMaple

#coupletravel #100waysoftravel #southkorea #gyeongju #sakurablossoms #cherrybloosom I would say Gyeongju is perfect for a couple's trip in spring. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom, with petals flying everywhere, making the air feel sweet and romantic. Korean couples are all around, setting up their tripods to capture the perfect couple photos. We brought our own tripod too, and they were more than willing to help us take photos whenever we needed. We spent a lovely afternoon relaxing and chilling in the Sakura garden at Bulguksa Temple and by the peaceful Boemun Lake, soaking in the beauty of the season and each other's company. It was a truly magical and romantic experience.

Gyeongju is a historic city that served as the capital of the Silla Dynasty for over 1,000 years, known as Seorabeol, Geumseong, or Gyerim at the time. In particular, I visited Bulguksa Temple and Gameunsa Temple Site, which were representative temples of the Unified Silla period. 1️⃣ Bulguksa Temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, first built during the reign of King Beopheung but significantly reconstructed by Kim Dae-Seong during the reign of King Gyeongdeok after the unification. 2️⃣ Bulguksa Temple houses many relics, among which the Dabotap and Seokgatap pagodas are the most famous. Dabotap, National Treasure No. 20, is also the background of the 10-won coin, and originally there were four stone lions at the base, but now only one remains. 3️⃣ Alongside Dabotap, Seokgatap, National Treasure No. 21, stands facing it. Notably, the oldest existing Mugujeonggwang Great Dharani Sutra was discovered in Seokgatap. 4️⃣ Leaving Bulguksa Temple and heading towards the city, you can see a replica of the nine-story pagoda of Hwangnyongsa Temple, which is said to have been the largest in Silla. 5️⃣ Leaving the city of Gyeongju and heading towards Gampo Bay on the East Sea, you can find the Gameunsa Temple Site, built by King Munmu's son in memory of his father who unified the three kingdoms, and there you can also see the Gameunsa Temple Site Three-Story Stone Pagoda, National Treasure No. 112. 6️⃣ Next to the Gameunsa Temple Site, in Gampo Bay, is King Munmu's underwater tomb, also known as Daewangam. 7️⃣ Gyeongju is also famous for delicious foods such as mulhoe and milmyeon, so be sure to try the local cuisine along with your historical and cultural journey of Silla.

#falltrip The same goes for spring flowers, but autumn leaves may suddenly turn red due to changes in temperature, but for now, the autumn leaves at Bulguksa Temple may not be until the end of October. When I actually came to Gyeongju two years ago, I happened to see the autumn leaves of Bulguksa Temple. It was the peak of autumn leaves in Bulguksan Mountain around mid-November. I thought I'd still have to wait another week to see the colorful fall leaves of Gyeongju's famous temple Bulguksa. I thought it was too hasty to come here with the thought of autumn leaves, so I decided to take my time to look around the Bulguksa Temple grounds.

When double cherry blossoms bloom, Gyeongju Bulguksa is crowded on both weekdays and weekends. Still, this is the hottest place among Gyeongju tourist destinations right now, so you should definitely save it and go. 🏠Bulguksa🏠 385 Bulguk-ro, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do Bulguksa 🅿️The parking lot is well-maintained ✅There are many tourist attractions nearby💓 ✅It is close to Gyeongju Bomun Complex, so it is easily accessible. #DoubleCherryBlossoms #LifePhoto #GoodPlaceToTakePhotos #HotPlace #Gyeongju #GyeongjuTravel #DomesticTravel #SpringTravel #FlowerViewing #GyeongjuDate

Once the capital of the Silla Dynasty, this city is filled with ancient temples, royal tombs, and historical landmarks. The most iconic site is Bulguksa Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage site, featuring stunning Buddhist architecture and intricate carvings. Nearby, Seokguram Grotto houses a breathtaking Buddha statue.

Jinhae – Korea’s most famous cherry blossom festival at Yeojwacheon Stream & Gyeonghwa Station. 2. Seoul – Best spots: Yeouido Hangang Park, Seokchon Lake, Gyeongbokgung Palace. 3. Busan – Coastal cherry blossoms at Orukdo & Oncheoncheon Stream. 4. Incheon – Hidden gems like Jayu Park & Incheon Grand Park. 5. Gyeongju – Historic sites & spring beauty at Bomun Lake & Bulguksa Temple. 6. Hwagae – The dreamy 10-ri Cherry Blossom Road. 7. Daegu – Night blooms & skyline views at E-World 83 Tower & Suseong Lake.

I went to Gyeongju last December around this time! I haven't been there yet this year, but I love Gyeongju so much that I've been there every year for three years in a row. Gyeongju has a lot to see and eat, and it's a really charming city. If you're thinking about traveling domestically, I recommend Gyeongju this winter! 1️⃣ Cheomseongdae A must-see in Gyeongju! Be sure to visit Cheomseongdae. It is one of the oldest astronomical observatories in the world, built during the reign of Queen Seondeok of Silla. It is magnificent. If you go at sunset, the sunset behind Cheomseongdae and the soft lighting blend together to create a beautiful view. It has different charms during the day and at night, so I recommend visiting during the day and at night. 2️⃣ Donggung and Wolji This place is beautiful during the day, but I think it is even more beautiful at night. Donggung reflected in the pond is really beautiful. It is a night view that makes you forget the cold weather. 3️⃣~4️⃣ Bitkkuri It is ‘Bitkkuri’ on Hwangridan-gil. If you sit on the sunlit veranda and drink tea, your cold body will melt away. I recommend Bitkkuri, a quiet and cozy hanok cafe! 5️⃣ There were Christmas decorations all over Hwangridan-gil. It was really fun to walk around the streets looking around here and there. 6️⃣~8️⃣ Hyanghwajeong I went to a restaurant called 'Hyanghwajeong' recommended by a taxi driver. Since it was recommended by a local taxi driver, it was so delicious. Even though I have a small appetite, I ate it all up! Even if it's cold, you should definitely try Gyeongju Mulhoe. It's so delicious..! 9️⃣ Bulguksa If you go to Gyeongju, you must go to Bulguksa! If you walk hard to Dabotap, you'll forget the cold in no time. I was tired from walking hard, so I had a glass of refreshing Pocari. ㅋㅋ I hope you see the beautiful historical sites of Gyeongju. I think Gyeongju is the best travel destination to feel the beauty of Korea! Gyeongju has different charms in spring, summer, fall, and winter. I recommend Gyeongju for a winter vacation! @khxxn_ #Trip.comGayoDaejeon #GyeongjuTravel #WinterVacation

#FallTravel When it comes to Gyeongju's famous fall foliage spots, it's Bulguksa Temple! Bulguksa Temple is beautiful in spring, but it's also really beautiful in fall. This year, the fall foliage in Gyeongsang Province came late, so I was able to enjoy it a little more slowly. Since most of the tourists came by charter bus, it was surprisingly easy to find a personal parking space, so it was nice. In addition to the public parking lot right in front of the entrance, there were quite a few places to park on the side of the road nearby. I'm also satisfied with the free admission!

#traveldiaries The Bulguksa Temple is one of the oldest temples in South Korea, located in the historic city of Gyeongju. Here’s a guide for a day trip: Bulguksa Temple is a bit far from the Gyeongju KTX station, so after arriving by train, you’ll need to take a 40-minute bus ride to the temple. The bus route is convenient and runs frequently. If you arrive in the morning, you’ll likely reach the temple around lunchtime. I recommend eating before exploring. There are many good restaurants nearby, and I suggest trying: 📍Address: Chowon Grilled Bulgogi, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Gyeongju-si, Jinhyeon-dong 66-5. They offer a variety of options from pork to seafood at reasonable prices. After lunch, you can explore the temple and enjoy its beauty. Once done, I recommend relaxing at a nearby café: 📍Address: Caffe Old City, Jinhyeon-dong 66-8. If you love cats, this café is perfect, as the owner has several friendly cats you can play with. After some rest, take the bus back to Gyeongju station and head home after a pleasant day.
