Gyeonggi Yeoju Godalsa Temple Site

A temple site refers to a temple site that was once in operation but is now closed and only traces remain.

Since Buddhism was the state religion from the Three Kingdoms period to the Goryeo Dynasty, there are many temple sites in Korea. According to the Jogye Order Buddhist Cultural Heritage Research Institute, there are as many as 5,738 temple sites nationwide.

When looking at temple sites, we can see that humans have a finite lifespan, and that great monks were famous only at that time, and that they were called hosaiyupi in the history of human affairs, but now their traces have disappeared and are difficult to even mention. What good is it to look at them?

Located in Buknae-myeon, Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do, this temple site was founded during the reign of King Gyeongdeok, the 35th king of Unified Silla during the North-South States Period, and was designated as a historic site in 1993.
