Check in at Jeonglin Temple in Buyeo, South Korea

#Korea Must-visit check-in spots Between 538 and 660, Baekje moved its capital to Buyeo and built Jeonglin Temple in its central area. Jeongnimsa Temple is a representative relic of the Goryeo reconstruction period. Judging from the configuration of the temple, the temple's architectural layout adopts a tower-type configuration structure, that is, from south to north, the central gate, stone tower, golden hall, and lecture hall are built in sequence in a straight line, separated by corridors around them. But what is interesting is that the layout of the aisles surrounding the center of the temple is not a regular quadrilateral but a trapezoidal plane with relatively wide intervals on the north side. At the excavation site, there is a lotus pond in front of the temple site, and the five-story stone pagoda built during the Baekje period (National Treasure No. 9) and the stone Buddha statue built during the Goryeo period (Treasure No. 108) are still well preserved. The most precious treasure of Dinglin Temple is a five-story stone pagoda in the temple. At the bottom of the pagoda is the "Inscription on the Tang Dynasty's Conquest of Baekje", which is a stele engraved by Su Dingfang, the General of the Left Guard, the Supreme Pillar of the State, and the Duke of Xing, after he conquered Baekje. The stone pagoda is 8.33 meters high and is an elegant stone pagoda carved from granite. It is known as the ancestor of Korean stone pagodas along with the stone pagoda at the site of Mireuksa Temple in Iksan. This five-story stone tower embodies a balanced beauty. The overall atmosphere is clean and neat, stable and steady, solemn and majestic. It is an absolute national treasure of South Korea. When you visit Buyeo, remember to check in at Jeonglin Temple.
