Information Introduction Beopheungsa, which was then known as Heungnyeongsa, was created by Jajangyulsa in 647 under the rein of King Jindeok of Silla to enshrine Jinsinsari of Buddha
At the time, Preceptor Jinghyo earned 100 Jinsinsari of Munsubosal and enshrined them at Yangsan Tongdosa Temple, Odaesan Sangwonsa Temple, Seoraksan Bongjeongam, Jeongseon Jeongamsa Temple and Beopheungsa Temple while establishing Jeongmyeolbogung, Hall of Buddha, at each of the places
Beopheungsa Temple is one of the five Jeongmyeolbogung
Preceptor Jinghyo had Jinsinsari of Buddha in the mountain right behind the Jeongmyeolbogung of the temple
Inside the Jeongmyeolbogung there is no statue of Buddha and only a wide open window
This is because they believe the mountain as a whole with the enshrined Jinsinsari is the Buddha himself
Beopheungsa was once a large temple where over 2,000 monks gathered
Today, most of the temple buildings were lost to a number of fires leaving only a few buildings including Jeongmyeolbogung, simujang, yosachae, and Preceptor Jinghyo Bointapbi and a cave where Jajangyulsa meditated
The pine wood path from Beopheungsa Temple to Jeongmyeolbogung is one of the most picturesque sites in the nation
The location was originally named Sajasansa but later changed to Sajasan Jeongmyeolbogung in 1939
In addition to the path, the nine peaks (Gubongdae) lined up one after another forms another charming view
