Full description
  • Dive into the Zen of Korean Temple Cuisine in Seoul!

    Hey food lovers and culture enthusiasts! Ready for a Seoul adventure that'll tantalize your taste buds and feed your curiosity? Join us for an immersive day exploring the delicious world of vegan temple food and the historical heart of Korea's capital.

    We'll kick things off at the Temple Food Experience Center, just a stone's throw from Anguk Station. Here's where the magic happens - you'll learn the secrets of traditional Buddhist cuisine, guided by a real monk! Don't worry if your Korean's not up to scratch; we've got an awesome English interpreter to ensure you don't miss a beat.

    After you've mastered the art of temple cooking (and sampled your creations, of course!), we'll hit the streets for a journey through time. We're talking Gyeongbokgung Palace, folks - the granddaddy of Korean royal residences. You'll get to check out ancient artifacts at the National Palace Museum and soak in the history at Yeongchumun Gate.

    Next up is Seochon, a neighborhood that's like a living, breathing museum. We'll wander through alleys lined with traditional Hanok houses, pop into quirky galleries, and breathe in the artistic vibes that make this area so special.

    Hungry again? Perfect timing! We'll head to Tongin Market for a truly unique lunch experience. Armed with traditional brass coins, you'll get to play culinary explorer, picking and choosing from a smorgasbord of Korean street food to create your own personalized lunchbox. It's like being a kid in a candy store, but way cooler!

    We'll wrap up our day with a leisurely stroll through a picturesque Hanok alley, the perfect backdrop for those Instagram-worthy shots.

    So, what do you say? Ready to cook, explore, and eat your way through Seoul? Join us for a day you won't forget!
