Korea's official Templestay platform lists one-day, experience-oriented and rest-oriented programs at temples around the country. Start by choosing the program type and date rather than choosing a temple only from photos.

The English reservation search currently includes a 'Temples for Foreigners' filter. Use it if language support matters, then open the specific program page to check the address, contact details, dates, room arrangement, price and schedule. Temple rules are not identical, so do not assume a rule from one monastery applies everywhere.

If you booked without an account, the official site has a reservation-confirmation page that uses the email address and password registered when booking. The official FAQ also says you do not normally need to carry a printed confirmation letter because temples keep reservation lists; if confirmation is unclear, contact the temple or the Templestay support center with the booking name, participation date and temple name.

Packing matters because facilities vary. The official FAQ recommends bringing towels, toiletries, underwear, socks, a change of clothes and other personal items; many temples provide only basic soap/toothpaste and temple clothing. Mountain temples can be much colder than cities, so bring warm layers when appropriate.

Conduct rules are program-specific. Some temple pages explicitly require punctuality, quiet behavior and temple clothing and prohibit alcohol or smoking. Read the exact program page and follow the host temple's instructions rather than treating a generic etiquette list as universal.
