Sujongsa Temple (수종사)

Description

Sujongsa Temple is a branch temple of Bongseonsa Temple, located near the top of Ungilsan Mountain. Amazing views from Sujongsa Temple include various mountaintops and the Bukhangang River. The temple was built in 1439 during the Joseon period. The temple since then had gone through many reconstructions and expansions, which were severely damaged during the Korean War. In 1975, Monk Hyegwang began repairs, starting with Daeungbojeon Hall and slowly expanded the temple site subsequently.
