For Buddhists, or people who want to experience life in temple and are interested in a spiritual practice, it’s a special experience to accommodate in a temple inside the Lumbini Park, such as Korean Temple, Canadian Temple. Usually, it’s a short stay for a few days, but some may do a volunteer work for a month or even longer.

Korean Temple (also called Dae Sung Sakya Temple) in the West Monastic Zone, opposite Chinese Temple, is one of popular temples accepting foreign visitors from different countries, like a youth hotel. It just charges a little for room and broad. But, you need to know in advance that, beds in the temple are simply paved on wooden shelves, four people share one room with very simple and basic settings, foods (vegetarian dishes) are afforded at fixed times. You need to strictly follow the meal time. Living conditions are tougher than outside hotels, but you will deeply understand some truths: nothing comes easy, inner peace of mind matters much more than external stuff, etc. The good suggestion is taking this opportunity to admire the architecture beauty, tranquil nature surrounding and escape from chaotic outside world.
