Summary[edit]

Description

This temple site is located a mile inland from King Munmu's underwater tomb. While Munmu commissioned the construction of this temple, he did not live to see its completion.

Today, the temple is gone; aside from the building foundations, these twin three-story stone pagodas, again typical Silla design, are the only remaining structures. Even then, the pagodas had lost their spires long ago, and metal spikes serve as lightning protection. Additionally, much of former temple land has been used for agricultural and residential purposes for centuries.

These pagodas, 13.4 meters tall, are designated as National Treasure No. 112. The temple site itself is Historical Site No. 31.
