TempleDay

Take a short break from your day in a temple deep in the forest. TempleDay lets you walk through the main hall of a Korean mountain temple, built in 3D, and rest your mind. There is no sign-up, and you see the other visitors who are in the same hall right now. There is no chat: instead of words, you feel each other through joined palms and bows. ■ Walk the temple · Climb the stone steps from a leaf-strewn yard into the hall · Tap where you want to go, or walk with the joystick at the bottom left · Drag the screen to look around the hall · A Buddha statue and altar paintings, lanterns, and a misty pine forest outside the windows ■ A hall you share · See the people in the same hall walk, sit and bow · Join your palms standing and the hall hears "○○ greeted you with joined palms" · Sit on a cushion and bow · Everyone gets a name from nature, like "Quiet Mountain Bird"; tap someone to see theirs · Each hall has a limit so it never gets crowded; move to another hall from the top left ■ Sounds of the temple · Birdsong, a forest stream and a distant wooden fish · Chanting in the hall · A temple bell as you arrive, a wind chime, and a singing bowl with each bow · Set nature, chanting and effect volumes separately in Settings ■ And more · 22 languages: choose one in Settings or follow your device · The Buddha statue and paintings are made from cultural heritage data published by the National Museum of Korea and others
