General presentation
Daegu and Haeinsa
Large interior city, markets, nearby mountains and major Gayasan temple form a less littoral cultural step.
The discovery of Daegu and Haeinsa is based around Haeinsa Temple, Seomun Market and Apsan Park. The stay thus alternates between the big city, mountain reliefs, heritage and forests, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 3 to 6 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Temple
Haeinsa Temple
Haeinsa is located in the forests of Mount Gaya and retains the printing blocks of the Tripitaka Koreana in buildings designed for ventilation. The approach path, the courses and the mountain landscapes give the site as much strength as its documentary treasure.
Nature and panorama
Seomun Market
Seomun is one of the major historical markets of Daegu, covered with passages where textiles, fresh produce and street cuisine cross. The visit reveals a very active shopping town, especially in the evening when food stalls take over.
Place indismissible
Apsan Park
Apsan rises directly south of Daegu with trails, cable car and gazebos on the city. The mountain offers a wooded breath accessible from the center, but the slopes and summer heat require careful choice of schedule.
