Source text - Korean
한국인의 밥상에는 과거와 현재, 미래와 더불어 수천 년을 이어온 많은 이야기들이 담겨져 있습니다.

한국인의 밥상에는 늘 계절이 머물러 있습니다.
곡물로 지은 밥과 뜨겁게 끓인 국 그리고 봄, 여름, 가을, 겨울 계절마다 특색 있는 식재료로 만든 반찬과 음식이 더해지기 때문이죠.

한국인의 밥상에는 ‘기다림의 지혜’가 담겨 있습니다.
콩, 고추, 채소 등의 재료를 적절한 농도의 소금물에 담아 기다리는 것, 발효와 숙성이라는 시간이 만들어 낸 지혜이고, 맛입니다.

비록 세월이 흐르고 우리네 밥상에도 많은 변화가 생겼지만 자연, 시간, 사람이 더불어 살아가는 지혜로움만큼은 오늘도 변함없이 한국인의 밥상 위에 차려지고 있습니다.
Translation - English
The Korean table weaves together stories throughout the past, present, and future, over thousands of years.

A Korean meal embodies all seasons.
Rice and a simmered bowl of soup make up the core of a Korean meal, with a complementing array of side dishes and unique ingredients that reflect the flavors of all four seasons.

A Korean meal embodies wisdom and patience.
Soybean, chili pepper, and vegetables come together in brine, with the most important ingredient, time, fermenting the dishes a distinct flavor that teaches us the wisdom of patience.

While our meals have significantly changed along with time, the wisdom of our ancestors has remained the same, and we still inherit the traditional wisdom of nature, time, and people with every meal.

Templestay is a hands-on traditional culture program that allows you to experience the Buddhist life at 'Sansa', mountain temples unique to Korea showcasing 1,700 years of Korean Buddhist history and culture.
The program unites and touches the hearts of people in a way that dissolves all national, ethnic, and cultural differences.
Templestay, with its historically and culturally rich Sansa, situated in pristine nature, is a glimpse into Korea's true beauty, an opportunity to reconnect with loved ones through better communication, and thus an unique journey that leads one to genuine happiness.

* Our one-day program is ideal for people who are interested in Templestay but have limited schedules or foreign travelers who wish to experience Korean Buddhism within a short period of time.
Participants may choose between guided tours around the temple ground, 'chamseon' meditations, tea ceremonies, and lantern-making programs.
