Whereis M
I visited myogaksa for a templestay during 2014 Templestay Week (early december).
The temple was very nice and with good installations. I was surprised it was quite well hidden in the streets of the neighborhood. I was even more surprised when we went in, and it was bigger than I had expected taking into account it was just there among other buildings.
The buddhist monks were really nice, as one would always expect, and they taught us a tea ceremony, some stories about buddhism, rituals such as the 108 postrations, and ate delicious veggie food (I still remember those pastries they gave at the end with red bean in my dreams).
Go visit, especially if you're nearby, because it's a nice temple! Haven't been to many, so I cannot really compare it to others !
