Bulguksa Buddhist Temple, located on the forested slopes of Mount Toham in Gyeongju, South Korea, is a celebrated symbol of ancient Silla-era architecture and spirituality. Originally constructed in the 8th century during the Unified Silla period, the temple was intended to embody the ideals of paradise through its elegant layout, stone bridges, and iconic twin pagodas—Dabotap and Seokgatap. All photos created with the Nikon Z6 and either the 14-30mm f/4 or 24-70mm f/4 lens. Processed using Photoshop CC and Nik Collection’s Color or Silver Efex Pro.
