North Korea has invited the head of South Korea’s top Buddhist sect, the Jogye Order, to visit Pyongyang before the end of the year, officials at the Buddhist order said Wednesday.

North Korea made the invitation to Ven. Jigwan during a ceremony commemorating a renovation of a temple at North Korea’s Mount Geumgang on Sunday, but he replied it would be difficult this year due to his tight schedule, the officials said.
