Tucked away on the slopes of Ansan Mountain, Baengnyeonsa Temple offers a peaceful retreat from the bustle of central Seoul. A short walk uphill leads to serene temple grounds with sweeping views over the city skyline.
안산 자락에 자리한 백련사는 서울 도심 속에서 조용히 산사의 정취를 느낄 수 있는 사찰입니다. 복잡한 도시를 벗어나 짧은 산책로를 따라 오르면 고즈넉한 경내와 함께 도심 풍경이 한눈에 펼쳐집니다.
