Sudeoksa Temple
About
Sudeoksa Temple, which has played an important role in the history of Korea’s Buddhism, is located at the foot of Deoksungsan Mountain. It was one of twelve temples from the Baekje Kingdom mentioned in Chinese historical records. There is no historical record of when the temple was founded but researchers believe it was founded sometime during the reign of King Wuideok (554-597). The main building of Sudeoksa Temple, Daeungjeon Hall, was constructed in 1308 during the Goryeo dynasty. It was repaired four times between 1528 and 1803, but fortunately kept its original beauty. In addition to Daeungjeon Hall, Sudeoksa Temple houses many cultural treasures, such as the Three-story Stone Pagoda of Sudeoksa Temple.
