Yesan Hwaamsa Temple (화암사 (예산) · © KTO · KOGL Type 3
Why go
Yesan Hwaamsa is a Korean Buddhist temple in Yesan, Chungcheongnam-do, with traditional Korean Buddhist architecture set in a forested mountain setting. As with most Korean local temples, Hwaamsa offers a quieter Buddhist experience than the major tourist temples. For travelers based in Yesan area and wanting a quiet Buddhist anchor, Hwaamsa is one of the cleaner small single picks. Pair with broader Yesan area trips (Yun Bonggil Memorial, Suden temple).
