The Kimchi-ite: A 1000-Year-Old Temple In The Middle Of Seoul {Gadling}
Feb 23rd 2013 3:20AM Good question.
From Sadang Station, take exit 4 and go straight out from there. Continue straight as the sidewalk and the side-road go up a hill and make your first right. Continue straight on this road, staying with it as it curves. After 10 to 15 minutes of walking you'll see a sign marking that you have entered the temple grounds.
Hope that helped!

Why I Came To South Korea: An Introduction To 'The Kimchi-ite' {Gadling}
Dec 11th 2012 6:38PM They certainly aren't world class beaches, but they are a quite nice retreat from the city in the summertime. I definitely agree that Seoul needs A LOT more trashcans and that it lacks tourist attractions (of which I think Tokyo truly lacks as well, it's a much better place to live), but I think that Seoul is coming into its own with other things to offer such as live music, shopping, food, renovated temples, museums and festivals. It is also getting better every year.
