The presence of a unique Buddha statue stands out at Gwangyang Unamsa Temple

As you step into Gwangyang Unamsa Temple, the first thing that captures your attention is the uniquely shaped Buddha statue, rarely seen in other temples. The statue, with its massive size and intricate expression, exudes a majestic aura as if embracing both the mountains and the sky. Unlike traditional styles, the Buddha statue at Unamsa combines soft curves with solid sculptural beauty, creating a distinctive atmosphere. When sunlight touches the surface of the statue, a gentle golden glow spreads, casting a mysterious light and enveloping the entire temple grounds in serene tranquility. Surrounding the statue are stone steps and pine trees, forming a picturesque scene. Upon closer inspection, the warm expression of the statue brings a sense of comfort to the viewer. Unamsa Temple, with this single Buddha statue, is a tranquil yet extraordinary temple well worth a visit.
