With hotel nights easily topping 200,000 KRW (approximately $150.00), budget-savvy travelers look forward to May every year for one reason: the Happiness Doubled Temple Stay<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Swap city noise for the soft chime of a wind bell (\ud48d\uacbd) and a hard mattress for the hush of a mountain-temple dawn \u2014 and that overnight stay costs just 30,000 KRW (approximately $22.50). In 2026, more than 120 temples across the country will open their doors to people craving a reset from daily life.<\/p>\n

The Happiness Doubled Temple Stay<\/strong> is a government-backed temple experience run by the Korean Buddhist Cultural Foundation<\/strong>. The foundation and the government subsidize much of the cost, cutting what participants pay to less than half.<\/p>\n

Since typical temple-stay fees fall between 70,000\u2013100,000 KRW (approximately $52.50\u2013$75.00), this is about a 67\u201370% discount. The overnight, two-day program costs the same for locals and visitors: 30,000 KRW (approximately $22.50)<\/strong>. The one-day option for foreigners is 15,000 KRW (approximately $11.25)<\/strong>. Remember, this is an annual promotion that runs only during May \u2014 miss it and you\u2019ll likely have to wait until next year.<\/p>\n

Reservations for 2026 opened on Tuesday, April 7, at 10 a.m.<\/strong>. The program runs for one month, from Friday, May 1 through Sunday, May 31<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Temples in the greater Seoul area and those near cherry-blossom hotspots often sell out within minutes of opening, so act fast.<\/p>\n

With over 120 participating temples nationwide, scouting spots that fit your schedule and travel plans ahead of time will greatly boost your chances of booking. A single spring night at a mountain temple lingers longer than most luxury getaways.<\/p>\n
