Located near the entrance of the Moaksan Provincial Park, Geumsansa Temple (금산사) was established by King Beop, or Beopwang, of the Baekje period (599AD).
The Buddhist temple features over ten designated cultural properties including Mireukjeon, a national treasure, as well as other attached buildings.
The country’s only three-story building containing a Buddha statue, Mireukjeon was built with wood and has a single-open floor inside.
In spring, cherry blossom trees come into full bloom from the mountain entrance all the way to Geumsansa; and in winter Buddhist adherents come to bow before the statue of Mireuk bodhisattva inside Mireukjeon or walk in circles around the pagoda.
The statue is the largest indoor standing Buddha in the world reaching 11.82 meters of height.
The two other Buddha statues standing on right and left of the Mireuk bodhisattva are 8.8 meters tall each. * Important Cultural Properties Mireukjeon (National Treasure No.
