Visit of Tongdosa temples and Busan

Tongdosa is one of the Three Jewel Temples of Korea. It represents the Buddha, and is located on Yeonchuk-san in Yangsan City, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea. The main hall in Tongdosa opens out onto a stupa which the faithful claim contains relics of the Buddha. It was founded in 646 by the monk Jajang, during the reign of Queen Seondeok of Silla. It thrived throughout the Unified Silla and Goryeo periods, when Buddhism was the state religion, and remained strong even in the Joseon Dynasty. Only one building, the daeungjeon hall, survived the Seven Year War in the late 16th century; the other buildings were rebuilt after that time.
Busan Metropolitan City, also known as Pusan, is the largest harbor city in South Korea. With a population of about 3.65 million, Busan is also South Korea's second largest metropolis, after Seoul. The densely populated city is situated in the narrow Nakdong River valley, with mountains separating some of the various districts. It is located at 35°6'10" North, 129°2'25" East (35.102778, 129.040278 (wikipedia)
