Bronze Buddha Tongil Daebul at Sinheungsa buddhist temple in Seoraksan national park, around Sokcho, Gangwon province, South Korea. Tongil Daebul sits with legs crossed and half-closed eyes in meditation, his lips displaying a perceptible smile. A flowing robe with gentle folds, revealing the right shoulder, drapes the Buddha's robust torso. The hands of Tongil Daebul are positioned in the mudra symbolizing the enlightened one. A monk is doing ritual ceremony and allows to see how big the statue is. Trees and mountains behind.
