Hwasun Unju Cultural Festival

About the festival

The Hwasun Unju Culture Festival is a signature cultural festival held at Unjusa Temple in Hwasun, a mysterious sacred site where a thousand Buddha statues and stone pagodas dwell in every valley. In the tranquil temple grounds, where the legend of the reclining Buddha lying through a thousand years blends with countless stone pagodas, diverse cultural and arts programs that people of all ages can enjoy unfold. Traditional bell-ringing that stirs the heart, pungmul play, and music performances of various genres lift the festival's spirit, and participatory missions exploring Unjusa Temple and rich traditional and cultural experiences are prepared. As autumn deepens, you can take a journey through time and space into the mysterious legend of a thousand Buddhas and a thousand pagodas and make warm rest and special memories.
