Korean Buddhism Goes Global at UNESCO Summit in Busan

South Korea's largest Buddhist sect, the Jogye Order, is planning a major cultural push during the UNESCO World Heritage Committee meeting in Busan from July 19-29. They'll set up booths showcasing heritage sites like the Tripitaka Koreana and Tongdo Temple, plus host temple dinners and K-dessert events for international delegates. It's a smart move to introduce Buddhist culture and cuisine to the world's cultural decision-makers.
