About

Samgwangsa Temple, located on the outskirts of the beautiful Baegyangsan Mountain, embraces the lower village. Even though the temple is large, it’s a place of prayer to Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, where many people pray quietly. Each visitor circles around the pagoda containing the cremated remains of Buddha, and prays wholeheartedly. On Buddha’s birthday, you must see the spectacular sight provided by the Lotus Lantern Festival. In May, colorful lanterns light up the outskirts of the mountain at Samgwangsa Temple, making it the brightest place of all.
