Happy birthday, Buddha!
Now for those like the Sanchon Hunjang who aren't really Buddhist devotees and have been to just enough temples in the name of sightseeing that they all look the same now, let me recommend one that looks different:
수국사 (守國寺)
- Its got a funky gold-leaf facade...
- It's got the Tricky Dick Buddha Statue...
- It's got a really friendly Abbot,
though no Costello...
- And it's easily accessable by subway...
Just get off the ocher colored line (6호선) at 구산역 and walk it...
So go! 수국사 ho~
