Tradition

Traditional Korean Activities


Celebrate the living heritage and time-honored customs of Korea. Here you’ll find hands-on experiences like temple stays, history lectures, hanbok and hanok adventures, Korean cooking classes and traditional arts workshops, all designed to let you participate in authentic Korean rituals and crafts. This category is perfect for those who want to actively explore Korea’s roots—whether spending a night at a Buddhist temple, trying folk games, donning a hanbok for photos, or joining a calligraphy or paper-making session. It’s all about doing tradition, not just reading about it.
