"Haedong Yonggungsa"









Haedong Yonggungsa Temple is situated on the

coast of the north-eastern portion of Busan.

This superb find of a tourist spot and

temple offers visitors the rare find of a temple along the shore line.

Most temples in Korea are located in the mountains.

Haedong Yonggungsa Temple was first built in 1376 during

the Goryeo Dynasty. During the reign of Uwang,

the great Buddhist teacher known as Naong established this temple beside the sea.


Haesu Gwaneum Daebul (Seawater Great Goddess Buddha),

Daeungjeon Main Sanctuary, Yongwangdang Shrine,

Gulbeop Buddhist Sanctum (enclosed in a cave),

and a three-story pagoda with

four lions can all be seen looking out over the ocean.



blah, blah, blahieho, blahhiehodooo.
