Myeong-dong Cathedral, Seoul, South Korea


4.5 (1.103 reviews) Spent Ranking #24 in Seoul Religious Sites • Churches & Cathedrals

Holy

Gorgeous cathedral built in Gothic Revival style in the heart of Seoul. As a Catholic, I’d been wanting to visit it for a while. It was a must on my week long visit to Korea. The grounds still had their Christmas nativity scene up in early January. My only regret was I didn’t have time to stay for mass and the inside was closed because of current mass. I did have a chances to ask for Mother Mary’s intercession at two of the statues behind and in front of the cathedral. I hope my next visit is much longer!

    Peaceful
    Very nice church on the hill, it is simple and beautiful inside. It was a Sunday so a lot of people were inside praying. Unfortunately becuase of the coronavirus, there was no holy water but that is understandable. If you are into religious sites, definitely worth a visit.
