Musangsa Temple (est.
March 2000) is an international Zen Temple created by Monk Sungsan exclusively for foreigners.
The temple aims at promoting Korean Zen Buddhism among foreign monks and nuns while encouraging non-Buddhist priests and religious leaders to experience Zen.
Located at the foot of Gyeryong Mountain, the temple is surrounded by a forest of pine trees, giving visiting Zen practitioners a chance to experience the genuine natural beauty of Korea.
To date, over 600 foreigners from 30 different countries have visited the temple to learn more about Zen meditation.
Twice a year (once in the summer and once in the winter) a 3-month program is held for foreign monks and nuns to come and practice Ganhwaseon, a type of Zen Buddhism.
Travelers and other foreigners are also welcome to participate in shortened versions of the program, which are typically one week in length.
During meditation/program periods, public visits are limited.
Buddhist services are held every week.
Services presided over by monk Musim are open to the general public and are held in English.
