Information Introduction Sinheungsa (신흥사) is a short 10min walk away from the entrance to Sogongwon
In fact, many visit because of its close proximity to Sogongwon
Sinheungsa is a temple which used to be called Hyangseongsa, built by Jajangyulsa (590~658), who traveled to famous mountains all over the nation, in Queen Jindeok’s (?~654) 6th year of reign
It was destroyed and rebuilt many times since
On the path to Sinheungsa, there is a great bronze statue called Bronze Jwabul Statue, which is well over 10 meters high
Just beyond the statue, which is on a granite terrace, there is a bridge to the right called Hyeonsugyo, which was newly built for crossing the ravine
Past the bridge there is a long stone wall with a Cheongwang door, and you can enter the temple
At the entrance there are four Cheonwang (king) statues (Jiguk Cheonwang with a sword, Damun Cheonwang with a lute, Gwangmok Cheonwang with a tower, and Jeungjang Cheonwang with a dragon), placed on either side
The Buddhist statues at Sinheungsa were placed here during the founding days of Seongjeongsa, and include the statues Mireukbosal, Gwaneumbosal and Seji which were sculpted by Uisang Daesa
The buildings which were built during that time are still standing, like the sanctuary, main temple, Myeongbujeon, Bojaeru, and Chilseonggak, etc
There is also an important cultural property, Treasure No
443, called Hyangseongsaji, a three-story stone tower
You can reach the Ulsan boulder by following the wall outside Sinheungsa
Sinheungsa is an ancient temple with deep historical significance, and many tourists come because of its beautiful scenery
