Wonhyo Chapel and Yongsan Seminary… Again

Just a couple of shots I took today at Wonhyo Chapel and Yongsan Seminary near Yongsan Electronics Market.

This is truly one of Seoul’s hidden treasures — for a full write-up, see this post from last year.

    Nice example of Flemish and English bonds, which are much more solid and esthetically pleasing than the now more common stretcher bond.

    Crystal pics (the top one being the money shot) and great link to Smothers52 on Flickr - found a few beauties in his set.

    Any chance you (Robert) could point to this church’s location on a Google map or some other locator?

    To digress:

    What’s with all the church pictures?

    Out of curiosity, what camera did you use to take these great interior pics?
