A Tranquil Sanctuary Amidst Serene Mountains

Hwaeomsa Temple, nestled at the foot of Jirisan Mountain, is a peaceful temple that calms the mind the moment you step in. Surrounded by an ancient fir forest, the temple harmonizes beautifully with nature. As you ascend the stone steps, the gentle sound of the breeze and the subtle murmur of the scenery cleanse your spirit. Standing before the quiet Daeungjeon Hall, the aged tiles and colorful dancheong glisten with light, appearing even more beautiful. The songs of mountain birds serve as a natural background melody, creating a sense of timeless peace. Taking a moment to pause and breathe in the mountain air fills your heart with clarity. When you wish to escape the daily grind and experience true rest, Hwaeomsa Temple warmly welcomes you as an unchanging, tranquil retreat.
