El templo Jogyesa es el núcleo del budismo zen en Corea, en él se encuentran la oficina principal de administración del budismo coreano y la sala en donde se realiza la asamblea general, entre otras instalaciones. Fue construido hacia finales del siglo XIV (época de Goryeo) en el interior del actual parque Susong, pero fue destruido (en un período indeterminado) debido a un incendio, y fue reconstruido en el año 1910. A lo largo de su historia ha tomado varios nombres, hasta que recibió la denominación de Jogyesa en el año 1954. El nombre deriva del monte Jogyesan, el cual fue el lugar en donde meditó el monje Hyeneungdaesa. Fue uno de los monjes más respetados, por lo cual sus enseñanzas y su vida han sido objeto de estudio a lo largo de la historia. En el altar del templo Jogyesa, al ser el lugar más sagrado y honrado del budismo en Corea, se llevan a cabo eventos, ceremonias y ritos durante todo el año. El edificio próximo al altar principal es la oficina general de administración del budismo coreano, es decir, es un organismo que ejerce las actividades de control y ejecución, por lo que también se efectúan gran cantidad de eventos budistas. Dentro del edificio se establecen las salas de exposiciones y la imprenta, que edita e imprime semanarios budistas. En el patio principal del templo se sitúa la pagoda de piedra de 7 pisos, construida en el año 1930. En especial, dentro de la pagoda se encuentran enterradas las cenizas de Buda, que fueron traídas en el año 1914 por un monje esrilanqués. Hacia la izquierda se encuentra instalado el campanario, que posee un gran tambor, una campana e instrumentos tradicionales de madera que se utilizan en el templo. Al otro lado del campanario está el primer centro cultural académico, construido en el año 1991, en donde se realizan seminarios, actuaciones, ceremonias de boda, conciertos musicales y exposiciones, entre otros eventos culturales.

Seochon Guest House is nicknamed ‘Jaeminangol (interesting village)’ after Baekseok’s poem ‘Yeowunangol’, with the aim of providing a visit full of interesting experiences. Passing through a garden and entering the main building, the unique charm of this hanok building, the staircase to get to the first floor from daecheong (main floored room), catches the eye of the visitors. In addition, the building is decorated with various stylish objects including paintings and Korean musical instruments. The terrace situated on the first floor offers an open view of the surrounding area including roof tiles of hanok structures and alleyways in Seochon. It is said that Korean novelist Yoon Hu-myeong also appreciated the structure of the guesthouse, saying, “It is an interesting place.” Built in the 1930s, the house, which has many storage places, was taken by the owner couple in spring 2014 as they were attracted by the house during their trip to Seochon. After the repair work, the ground floor of the house was opened for guests from January 2016, hoping that guests could share their daily experiences and stories with each other. The guestrooms and the main floored room on the ground floor are open to guests, with the exception of the first floor, which is used by the owner couple. The living room is equipped with books, a curved TV, and a table. The tasty meal, which is served in the kitchen, consists of rice and soup with six side dishes and is much loved by guests. The guesthouse offers a total of four rooms – Jae Room, which is the most Korean-style room; Mi Room, which has a combined style of a Korean-style room and Western-style room; Nan Room, which is an ideal room for meditation with a beautiful paper window; and Ahn Room, which is equipped with a veranda and a pretty flowerbed. Every room has its separate charm with various comfortable bedding to provide a quiet and cozy bedroom for guests in the middle of the city. Furthermore, the guesthouse holds a pansori (epic chant) performance twice a year. The owner started learning how to sing pansori to promote the Korean culture and tradition to foreigners. When a pansori performance is held, the owner offers traditional Korean snacks and drinks including sikhye (sweet rice punch), sujeonggwa (cinnamon punch), traditional sweets and cookies, and tteok (rice cakes) to visitors, tourists, and performers.
