Visiting Tongdosa was our kick off jaunt for our upcoming weekend excursions. Sarah and I spend a good part of the day wandering around this famous Buddhist temple. What’s so unique about this temple is that there’s no Buddha statues to be found. Instead, the temple’s courtyards are arranged around several pagodas. Even though neither one of us is Buddhist, it was intriguing nonetheless. The temple is situated in a beautiful surrounding of forested mountains. The trees were bare but they made for striking photographs.
