Dongguksa Temple

Reviewed By GilsonJr19

Dongguksa Temple (동국사) is the last remnant of Japanese Buddhism in Korea, even though nowadays the temple follows the Korean Buddhism, the architecture is impressive. The temple stays still without the scars of the wars that assailed the peninsula, visiting it, is a visit to the year of 1919, the year that the Japanese occupation conducted a stronger occupation. The temple has very welcoming cats, that I even managed to take a photo of them ???? Also the temple was used as location for the film Ode to the Goose (군산: 거위를 노래하다) directed by one of my favorite directors Zhang Lu. It was interesting to visit some of the locations for this film, the next posts I will explore those locations.
