About the Festival
Hoeamsa Temple, the largest temple in the late Goryeo and early Joseon periods with deep ties to the Joseon royal family, has been recognized for its historical value despite only its site remaining today, and was selected for the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List in 2025. A historical and cultural festival of "Run-cation" (running + vacation) is held, where visitors can heal their mind and body and learn historical value, just like King Taejo Yi Seong-gye, who lived a monastic life at Hoeamsa Temple. The festival features various performances, including "King Taejo Yi Seong-gye's Royal Procession" and "Yangju Magistrate's Welcome Stage" prepared with motifs from the royal procession records in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, a "K-Hanbok Fashion Show" reinterpreting the costumes of the late Goryeo and early Joseon periods, the "Old&New Hoeamsa Temple Site Special Performance" connecting the past, present, and future, and a "Healing Concert" featuring the Yangju City Arts Troupe and Korean traditional music performers. Additionally, the festival offers "Grand Exploration of Hoeamsa Temple Site" program, allowing visitors to learn about and enjoy the Hoeamsa Temple Site.
