In this post, I will introduce you to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Beopjusa Temple located in Boeun, Chungcheongnam-do! Located at the foot of Mt. Sokri, Beopjusa Temple is famous for having the only wooden pagoda in Korea. If you look around Beopjusa Temple centered around Palsangjeon Hall at the entrance of the temple, you can see various hidden sights! In addition, the golden Buddha statue next to it boasts an unparalleled height, and its kind smile is an attractive element as if the Buddha's teachings reach Beopjusa Temple! Currently, the autumn foliage of Mt. Sokri is also famous for its beautiful fall foliage, so I recommend you visit before autumn leaves us! #Solo travel #Must-see historic sites#Outing

When I travel all over the country, I always seem to visit temples in each region! It's like visiting a shrine when traveling to Japan or a cathedral when traveling to Europe😁😁 As a 'temple travel enthusiast', I always look for one structure whenever I visit a temple in each region. It's the two pillars 'Dangganjiju' shown in the photo. A long wooden flagpole, 'Danggan', made to hang a large flag with a picture of Buddha's virtues. And the stone pillar erected to support this 'Danggan' is the 'Dangganjiju'. The flag, Dang, fluttering high in the sky, is said to have served as a sign that 'there is a temple here'. It not only served as a compass for people visiting temples, but also symbolized that the area was a sacred area. I think it played a similar role to the ancient Samhan totem poles that symbolized this place as a sacred area or a small island, or the red wooden torii gates that you might have seen at least once if you've been to a Japanese shrine! (But I always think it resembles a church's neon cross sign🤣🤣) After a long time, the wooden flagpole rotted away, the flagpole was moved to a museum, and now only the flagpole support remains. If you ever stop by a temple during your trip, I recommend you look for the flagpole support😍 #domestictravel #springisheaven #flagpolesupport #lifetraveldestinations #lifeshotspots #beopjusa #buseoksa #haeinsa #jhtour

#AutumnFoliage It's a little late this year It was a shame that they'd all already fallen But the remaining maple leaves Were still beautiful 🍁 The gilded bronze Maitreya Buddha at Beopjusa Temple It's really More than I imagined And the only existing wooden pagoda, Palsangjeon, is National Treasure No. 5 It's so nice to visit even without the maple leaves 🫧Beopjusa Temple in Sokri Mountain 📍 405 Beopjusa-ro, Sokri Mountain-myeon, Boeun-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do ▪️06:00-18:30 #ChungbukFoliage #BoeunFoliage #Beopjusa

#fallingseason The same goes for other landscapes, but flowers and autumn leaves are more important than where to go. If it's in time, you can see the best autumn leaves of your life, but if you go too fast, it's green.. If you go late, you will become a love that has disappeared along with the leaves, but I saw the peak scenery at Beopjusa Temple and Sejo-gil in Songnisan Mountain, a place worth visiting. The deck road continues along the pretty maple forest next to the valley to Sesimjeong. I think it's the prettiest section at the peak of autumn leaves. We finally arrived at the entrance of Sesimjeong. It's a tough road to this place for Deunglin and plantar fasciitis patients like me. We start hiking with Sesimjeong. If you go south, you will find Cheonwangbong Peak, the top of Songnisan Mountain, and if you go north, you will find Munjangdae, and you have walked almost all the legal hiking trails of Songnisan Mountain.

#fallingseason After touring Beopjusa Temple, I walked to Simsimjeong along the Sejo-gil of Songnisan Mountain, where the peak autumn leaves are located, and I can see a lot of yellow autumn leaves. Some sections of the road are not allowed to walk because they are under construction, but later I see that everyone is walking regardless. It's hard to control because there are so many people. I saw a typical autumn foliage scene where the mountainside around Suwon is also turned red. When I arrive at the forest of Sejo-gil in Songnisan Mountain, there is a red forest that is brightening everywhere. I'm traveling to Chungcheong-do from Mt. Seorak to Seoul and Gyeonggi-do along the autumn leaves, and I was lucky to see the peak of the autumn leaves in Songnisan Mountain.

#fallingseason There are so many valuable cultural assets in Beopjusa Temple that I only looked around the national treasures It is National Treasure No. 55, a five-story wooden tower with Palsangdo, which depicts the life of Sakyamuni in eight scenes. It was built when Beopjusa Temple was built, and it was burned during the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 15926, and it was rebuilt in 1626. I also saw a monk tapping a small Dharma drum (sogo) and practicing Buddhist prayer for a long time in the Palsangjeon Hall. I also saw a monk tapping a small Dharma drum (sogo) and practicing Buddhist prayer for a long time in the Palsangjeon Hall. Songnisan Beopjusa Stone Ryeonji, National Treasure No. 64, is estimated to have been made around 720. It is a rare stone sculpture that looks like a lotus floating around.

#fallingseason From the entrance of Beopjusa Temple to Simsimjeong Pavilion, the beautiful autumn leaves are long, and all the sections are superb. It's almost a maple tunnel between Songnisan Beopjusa Temple and Songnisan Sejo-gil, and the entire section is beautifully colored, but the peak ridge from Munjangdae to Cheonwangbong Peak is probably a landscape that has passed its peak. You can't see the ridges and the peak of autumn leaves in the valley at the same time. Sometimes there are green foliage that is not colored, so you will be able to see the pretty Songnisan foliage on the weekend of November 4th, although it is worse than now.

#fallingseason I've been looking at beautifully colored autumn leaves from the beginning It's the peak now, but there's a maple tree that hasn't been dyed somehow, so you'll be able to see the last Songnisan maple on the weekend of November. Even though it's around 9 o'clock, the cars are waiting indefinitely, but around 12:30 p.m., when they leave Sogli Mountain, Jegal, there were so many cars that there were about three hours of free flights. On the last holiday of October, you have to arrive at any tourist destination around 8 o'clock to park comfortably. It's good to have a suv car park so I don't feel stressed about parking at all.

#fallingseason Located at the base of Songrisan Mountain, Beopjusa Temple was initially built by the Silla monk, Uisin, in 553. He named it "Beopju" which means, "Residence of Dharma" because of the number of Indian sutras he brought there. During the Goryeo Dynasty, it is said that over 3,000 monks resided here. Some artifacts include a large stone grain bin and a giant 20-ton iron pot. Both of which were needed to feed the many people there. Much of the temple was destroyed during the Japanese invasions (1592-1598). The large wooden pagoda (Palsangjeon) was rebuilt in 1624 and has been preserved since. It is the oldest and tallest pagoda in Korea. Another prominent feature of Beopjusa is the ~30m tall golden Maitreya statue. Beopjusa is one of seven sansa (mountain temples) inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List (2018). Here is something interesting: Bruce Lee chose Beopjusa for his movie, Game of Death. However, after his untimely death, Beopjusa was edited out of the film. 405 Beopjusa-ro, Songnisan-myeon, Boeun-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do.

#fallingseason In the fall, maple attractions across the country are crowded with people. Among the maple attractions, the autumn foliage of Beopjusa Temple in Songnisan National Park is so beautiful. Various kinds of trees are growing in the area around Beopjusa Temple, and in autumn, the autumn leaves are colorful, so you can enjoy various colors of autumn leaves. The colorful autumn leaves paint the forest beautifully. Beopjusa Temple is located in nature and provides a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. In autumn, you can enjoy autumn leaves while listening to the sounds of nature and the wind, making it a suitable place to enjoy meditation and peaceful moments. There is a hiking and trekking course of Songnisan Mountain near Beopjusa Temple, so you can enjoy outdoor activities while enjoying autumn leaves.
