Discover the Hidden Gem of Daegu: Buinsa Temple and Its Four-Headed Turtles

Buinsa Temple (부인사) in Daegu, built during the Silla Dynasty, is a Buddhist temple with over a thousand years of history. Nestled at the foot of Palgongsan Mountain, it offers a serene environment and is regarded as a spiritual retreat. The temple not only preserves ancient architecture and cultural heritage but also served as a filming location for the Korean drama "A Korean Odyssey," attracting numerous fans and travelers. The most intriguing highlight is the "Four-Headed Turtle Statue" within the temple. Legend has it that these four back-to-back stone turtles symbolize wisdom, longevity, peace, and happiness. Touching them is said to bring good luck and blessings, making them a must-see sacred object for visitors. Personally, I believe it!| When in Daegu, consider visiting Buinsa Temple to experience its tranquil atmosphere and historical significance. Don’t forget to take a photo with the mysterious turtles and leave your own blessings and memories. 📷 📍Location: Buinsa Temple (부인사) 🕘Opening Hours: Daily 09:00–18:00 📮Address: 16, Doam-dong, Dong-gu, Daegu Metropolitan City (at the foot of Palgongsan Mountain)
