At An Sim Sa Temple in Dae Dun San Mountain

in #korea5 years ago

An Sim Sa temple was placed on Dae Dun San mountain. This mountain was designated as the natural park by the local government. It is believed that this temple was built during the period of Shilla dynasty. Actually, this area where An Sim Sa temple was built had been belonged to Baekje Kingdom before Baekje Kingdom was collapsed by Shilla dynasty.

It meant that this temple had been built after the collapse of Baekje dynasty. So I could not notice the trace of Baekje kingdom's architecture style in this temple.

The name 'An Sim Sa' means that the temple makes the mind of people peacefully.

The temple was located in the middle of the mountain. So I needed to drive for a while to get there. A memory brought me here. Several years ago, one of my friends had built Korean traditional house near the mountain. I dropped by him and we walked to the temple at that time. It was Autumn season when we stopped by.

At the last time when I dropped by, Dae Wung Jeon was not colored. But I could see that the hall was colored.

It must be not easy to build such a large Buddhist hall on the hillside. I was so happy when I saw Dae Wung Jeon hall through the green tree leaves.

Dae wung Jeon in An Sim Sa temple looked 2 story building from outside.But it was 1 story building inside.

I photographed this building from a different side.

This hall was so similar to the shape of the mountain stood behind Daewungjeon.

There are many temples on this earth that have been set up in the mountainous region.

The hill area becomes more beautiful and attractive for the temple.!

This is a beautiful location , to be on mountainous area and built temple there, I was wondering if they thought that be close to heaven. This time you were lucky with weather, it is sunny and clear blue sky. The contrast of blue sky and green hills perfectly match to that light green co lour of temple and of course the tiles on the roof reflect the same color like the mountains in background. Would be nice to have a pick inside of building too.

Thank you for your comment
In my view, it was closely related to the theory of Buddhism that paradise of Buddhism located on the imaginary mountain

We have numerous beautiful temples in this world. The Sim sa temple one of them. It is great to see this temple of extraordinary design. The hand crafts were so beautiful and attractive. Seeing such places, the mind is filled with joy. A place to lose yourself. Looking at such places makes me feel like I've been lost in another world.

I love to visit such beautiful places. Thank you so much for giving us such a wonderful place to see! Keep up the great work you do. All the best!!!

You Are Most Welcome!

I love this place ❣️

Is everything okay @justineh?

I’m just trying to understand why I curation group I respect would be curating this - by an author who is know for their voting ring and self voting themselves to trending while spamming and self voting on multiple alts.

I was just surprised to see your comment here, showing the curation of this post. I guess as an individual post, it’s pretty decent for him so perhaps I should not be complaining of the fact that it’s rewarded heavily due to him upvoting it with his alts, there was just a bit of an initial shock there when seeing your comment.

Oh, I see! As an individual post, you are right, it is well done. As far as doing background checks on authors before curating, we have not asked this of our curators, and we currently do not have a black list. Maybe that would be something to look further into. Thank you for bringing up your concerns!

Excellent location with excellent design, great combination. Also excellent shot. At times I was surprised, seeing their aesthetic craftsmanship and vision aesthetic style work.

Yes, it was marvelous how they built the temple in such a high place
