Important Information

  • Meeting Poin: Ichon Station Exit 2 (underground entrance) (Subway Line 4 / Gyeongui-Jungang Line) All transportation will be by subway. Dress for Exploration: Both venues are grand in scale. We recommend comfortable walking shoes so you can fully focus on the stories without fatigue. Capture the Essence: Photography is welcome for most artifacts. Your guide will point out the best angles for the 'Pensive Bodhisattva' and the grand monuments to ensure you get the perfect shot. Embrace the Silence: In the 'Room of Quiet Contemplation,' we invite you to take a brief moment of silence. It’s the best way to truly connect with the spiritual soul of Korea. Engage & Ask: Don't hesitate to share your interests! Whether it’s ancient art or modern politics, your guide is ready to dive deeper into the topics that fascinate you most. Indoor Comfort: Since most of the tour is indoors with controlled temperatures, a light layer is recommended to stay comfortable throughout the 5-hour journey.
