Jogyesa (Temple) is the headquarters of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. Jogye is the major sect of Korean Zen (Seon) Buddhism. Since Jogyesa is the chief temple of the largest sect of Korean Buddhism, it is on a grand scale. Daeungjeon (Hall) is the main hall of the temple and it has a statue of Sakyamuni Buddha enshrined within it. The majestic size of the main hall is often compared to that of the halls of the Joseon palaces. Jogyesa is located in the centre of Seoul, so it attracts many international visitors who want to experience Buddhist culture. The temple also hosts the Lotus Lantern Festival every May around Buddha's birthday and runs a Temple-life program for overseas visitors. While visiting Jogyesa, it is worth taking a look at Insa-dong street.
