Located on the outskirts of Ansan Mountain in Bongwon-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, Bongwonsa Temple, as the center of Korean Buddhism Taego, is a thousand-year-old temple with a long history and tradition. In 889 (3rd year of Shilla Queen Jinseong’s reign), Monk Doseon founded it at the ground of Yeonhui Palace (now Yonsei Univ.) and named it Banyasa temple. It was destroyed during the Imjin War in 1592, and later in 1748 (the 24th year of Joseon King Yeongjo’s reign), it was rebuilt and renamed “Bongwonsa” by two Buddhist monks, Chanjeup and Jeungam.

“Yeongsanjae,” one of the Buddhist rituals and also a National Intangible Cultural Property, takes place at Bongwonsa on June 6 every year wishing for world peace and the reunification of North and South Korea. It was designated as one of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2009. During Yeongsanjae, visitors can enjoy the Buddhist arts such as Beompae (Buddhist temple music for rituals) and dancing. Also, during summertime, Seoul Lotus Flower Culture Festival takes place, where visitors can enjoy the beautiful lotus flowers which are a symbol of Buddhism.

In 1967, Maria Obstetrics and Gynecology opened where the Maria Fertility Hospital (Sinseol-dong, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul) sits today, leading to the creation of the Maria Medical Foundation. At the time, the doctor willingly visited patients' houses with an old house-call bag even in the early mornings, no matter where a patient lived. This founding spirit became the root of the hospital's principles and commitment to its services.
Maria Fertility Hospital ranks number one in in-vitro fertilization cases, accounting for approximately 30% of the total cases among fertility hospitals. The hospital opened branches so that patients can conveniently experience the medical know-how of Maria Fertility Hospital no matter where they live across the country. The branches provide optimum diagnosis of problems through close collaborations among the branches.
The hospital has become a globally renowned fertility center, going beyond its unrivaled number-one position in fertility medicine in Korea. The hospital is dedicated to finding the best solution through research, and helping infertile patients realize their dreams of having a baby to create a healthy and happy family.
Maria Fertility Hospital is moving forward with the philosophy and heritage it inherited from the Maria Medical Foundation.
