Sight-seeing in Korea

Over the last week and a half we have gotten the chance to see many things... 

Last Sunday we saw Keumsan Buddhist temple and
Jeonju Hanok Village near the city where we had orientation. 

The Hanok Village shows traditional Korean life and houses.  While at
the village we saw a dancing ceremony where we were invited to
join in the dancing! 

At the temple Jesse got to enjoy one of his favorite treats...ICE CREAM! 

On Thursdya we left our orientation and traveled 4 hours to our new home, Bonghwa (I will tell you more about Bonghwa later!) 
           
This weekend Jesse's co-teacher, Mr. Kim, took us hiking up one of Bonghwa's famous mountains, Cheongnyang Mnt.  As Mr. Kim would say,
                                                               "It is beyond description."
