Introduction |
|
Hyangiram (Cultural Property Material No. 40) is one of four
Buddhist hermitages in Korea where the faithful come to pray. It was
originally named Wontongam, established by monk Wonhyo during the fourth
year of Baekje King Uija’s reign (644). Monk Yunpil later renamed
Wontongam as Geumoam in the 9th year of Goryeo King Gwangjong’s reign
(958) and then Hyangiram named by monk Inmuk during the 41st year of
Joseon King Sukjong’s reign (1715). Hyangiram was a base camp for
Buddhist monks who helped Admiral Lee Sun-shin fight the war during the
Japanese invasion.
The temple contains Daeungjeon, Gwaneumjeon,
Chilseonggak, Dokseodang, and Chwiseongru, all of which are well
preserved. Camellias and subtropical plants surround the Bawibong Peak
and the fantastic rock of Mt. Geumosan. The mountain path to Hyangiram
is very steep and it is one of the exciting mountain courses of Korea.
To reach the temple, you will need to climb the rock at the midpoint of
the trail and pass the stone gate, situated between two large rocks near
the temple. |
