Tunnel of Trees to the One Pillar Gate of Bongjeong-sa Temple.
I had to drive for 5 hours getting to Bongjeong-sa temple from Seoul.
5 hours distance is not a short in Korea.
Bur riding a car for 5 hours was so amazing, I could enjoy the mountains and the colors of changing season.
As arriving at the temple, I was so pleased to see the trees around the temple.
I needed to walk through the trees. It was a tunnel of the trees, especially the pines.
The scent of the pines made me feel refreshed.
I walked through the pines slowly to enjoy the feeling of exhilarating.
Of course I took some pics of the pines to share with my steemian friends.
It was a pity that I could not send you the scent of the pines.
After 10 minutes walking, finally I could see the one pillar gate.
The one pillar gate of Bongjeong-sa temple was not splendid but simple and unshophiscated.
Suddenly a question was rising, how this simple architecture could be listed on the UNESCO.
Oh my God really trees are so nice..really this place can refresh can anyone mind...Have a own.beauty...Thanks for sharing with us....
@slowwalker,
Wow that tunnel of trees looks amazing! Definitely it feels so wonderful, I have personal experiences about such tunnels! behind that pillar gate I wish we could see another wonders in your next article!
Cheers~
in the end it was worth driving so many hours

I agree that 5 hours is quite a distance to drive in Korea. Smaller roads than what I am used to made it a little more challenging for me.
The scenery there is absolutely beautiful, especially the tunnel of trees. Oh, to be surrounded by the scent the pine. All of my senses would be enjoying that delicious smell. I noticed that your trees are changing color, I did not think that it was the season I've change right now come however I could be wrong.
It was a very beautiful walk and I hope that the temple was not a disappointment to you. The gateless very simplistic, but I was hoping that after you get through the gate, you would be pleasantly surprised.

Thank you for comment
Of course it did not disappointed me.
You are welcome and it is always my pleasure. I actually did not think that you would ever be disappointed, and perhaps that was the wrong word to use. May be surprised would have been better. Anyway, I'm glad it was a great day

Sending tips with @tipU - how to guide :)
I bet the reason it is listed on the UNESCO it is because of the location and history connected to such a small monument! I bet the views on that drive were superb 😉

@slowwalker, After long time ride you very reached to Bongjeong-sa Temple. Under the tree shades still you walk given cool feelings. You told it tunnel of the trees. Yep agreed coz everywhere indeed trees still road. If you can't send scent to me of pines I can feel it through your professional photo clicks. We can see next day inside of this temple.
