The red and gold of Autumn starts from Seoraksan, whose leaves first start to change colors in October, before all the other mountains. For visitors who want to enjoy nature and history, they would be glad to know that the Sinheungsa Temple and the Great Buddha located in Seoraksan still retain the solemn architecture of the Silla period. In autumn, the temple, surrounded by red and gold maple trees, looks especially stunning.  Sinheung Temple, built during the Queen Jindeok era, is located in Seoraksan. A significant landmark of the temple would be the huge bronze Buddha statue, standing over 14 meters tall. This Buddha statue, also known as the Great Unification Buddha, symbolizes the desire of Koreans and foreigners alike, who would like to witness the reunification of the country. As you stroll along the temple grounds, breathe in the scent of pine and maple trees that surround this temple.
