A pleasant climb from Bulguksa brings you to Seokguram, where a giant Buddha sits in a man-made grotto and you can enjoy views all the way to the East Japan Sea.
The idea of the Seokguram Grotto was to make the pilgrim walk up the mountain of Tohamsan, holy to the Silla, have him drink some of the ice cold water that can still be found, and then make him leave every day life and walk the final steps up to the shrine holding the holy image of the Buddha, guarded by heavenly kings, guardian deities, bodhisattvas, ancient Indian gods, and statues along the wall. The rotunda holding the Buddha symbolizes Nirvana. The small size of the grotto, especially compared to the vast complex of Bulguksa, suggests that this shrine was intended for the royals of the Silla period. Nowadays, the huge statue is unfortunately protected by glass that reflects an awful lot of what is behind the visitor, instead of allowing a good view; photography is strictly forbidden. The location is superb, unfortunately, seeing and enjoying the statue itself is made particularly difficult by the setting. Walking back to Bulguksa is an easy downhill walk of just over three kilometres through the woods of Mount Tohamsan.
