Photos of Yakcheonsa Temple

Yakcheonsa Temple is a temple located in Seogwipo City, Jeju Island. Yaoquan Temple is a Buddhist building in the early Joseon Dynasty. It is a large-scale temple in South Korea. It is named after the divine water that can cure all diseases. The structure of Yaoquan Temple is similar to that of Chinese temples, surrounded by lush green trees and fresh air. The front is the main hall, the bell tower and the drum tower are on both sides, and there is a release pool in front. Among the temples in Korea, it is considered to be very well maintained, and at the same time, the environment is also very beautiful. On the first floor of the main hall, there are many dedicated worshippers. The 5-meter-high main Buddha, Vairocana Buddha, is placed on a 4-meter-high pedestal. The left and right walls are carved with huge rattan flowers in both directions. Two golden dragons from bottom to top. In terms of Buddhist temples alone, it is the largest in Asia. There are many tourists on the second floor. On the third floor, you can see many mysterious small towers. Many locals will walk around the small tower, chanting words while walking, as if they are praying. In addition, in the stairwells on both sides, the lotus seat lamps running through the head are like wind chimes, lined up densely. After leaving the main hall, there are fountains in the shape of pools on the left and right sides. The springs on both sides of Yaoquan Temple have different shapes. One side is a dragon playing in the water, and the other side is a boy holding a carp. In addition, there is a large Buddha bell in the clock tower opposite the main hall. In addition, next to the main hall is a sales place for karma, which sells all Buddha-related items. What is particularly interesting is that there are a lot of black basalt roof tiles stacked on the side, which attracts attention. The words are densely written on it, which is very similar to the feeling of donating wall tiles for building temples in Thailand. If you are interested, you can try it.
