LDS Temple in South Korea






This is the LDS Temple in Seoul, South Korea. I took these photos in 1992.

Interesting fact about this temple--the land was purchased many years ago and the city kept approaching the church in the years that followed wanting to buy it back. Eventually the church sold most of the plot they had purchased back to the city but kept a small portion to build the temple. The funds made from the sale of the portion that was sold to the city completely paid for the construction of the temple.
