Hongbeobsa pursues open Buddhism through unwavering missionary efforts and practical training for the living practice, modernization, and globalization of Buddhism. It engages in various activities including compassionate practice together with neighbors such as helping elderly people living alone and young heads of households, short-term monastic ordination for child monks to instill Buddha-nature in young people, foreign missionary work under the banner of "the world is one," various cultural lectures for the succession and development of traditional culture, and heritage tours and cultural experience activities.

The main places to see at Hongbeobsa are the Wonsang, the Daeungjeon (Main Hall), and the Gwaneumijeone (Avalokitesvara Hall). First, passing the large dharma hall, the Wonsang is located at the entrance of a spacious grass yard. On a lotus pedestal symbolizing the dharma realm, there are twin dragons holding a jewel, and above them, the Wonsang is depicted with cloud patterns floating across.
