If you're a person who enjoys mountains, you'll have a hard time avoiding temples. You don't need to be Buddhist to enjoy them. Listen for the monks chanting. Take a peek at a person worshiping. Enter for some quiet time in a sacred place.
When Japan occupied Korea, they burnt down the majority of the temples. Most of these are replicas, but I hand it to a nation for doing such a thing.
It seems wrong to give a "cheers" to a set of sacred buildings, so I won't.
So temples. Yeah, temples. Thanks for being beautiful.
