Inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, this architectural marvel nestled in the heights of Gyeongju testifies to the artistic genius of the Silla Kingdom. To celebrate 140 years of diplomatic relations between Korea and France, the Korean Cultural Center highlights this masterpiece of Buddhist statuary. Visitors observe the technical precision and spiritual serenity of these millennial sculptures, often considered the apogee of classical art in East Asia. This exceptional presentation, a result of collaboration with the National Institute for Research on Cultural Heritage of Korea, offers a privileged glimpse at treasures usually distant from Europe. The event pays tribute to a sacred heritage where stone seems to come alive to tell the story of a flourishing civilization. A valuable encounter to grasp the essence of Korean aesthetics.
