Sin Sung-gyeom (?–927) is the progenitor of the Pyeongsan Shin clan. In 918, along with Bae Hyeon-gyeong, Hong Yu, and Bok Ji-gyeom, he helped overthrow Gung Ye and elevate Wang Geon, contributing to the founding of Goryeo. General Sin Sung-gyeom, the top merit lord of Goryeo's founding, was a cavalry commander under Gung Ye's state of Taebong. However, after Gung Ye became king, his tyrannical rule worsened, killing his family and oppressing the people. Sin and his fellow commanders defeated Gung Ye and supported Wang Geon to establish Goryeo. In 927, the 10th year of King Taejo of Goryeo, he joined Wang Geon in battle against the Later Baekje forces of Gyeon Hwon, who invaded Silla. When Wang Geon was surrounded in the battle of Gongsan and faced danger, Sin disguised himself in Wang Geon's clothes and fought the enemy, sacrificing his life to allow Wang Geon to escape alone. Wang Geon mourned the general’s death deeply, retrieving his body and holding a proper funeral in Gwanghaeju, now Chuncheon. A tomb altar and Jimyo Temple (Miri Temple) were erected where Sin Sung-gyeom died, praying for his soul, and lands were granted to protect this site.
Donghwasa Temple is a historic Silla dynasty temple located in the Dohak-dong valley, where the Palgongsan waterfalls, Bindae-gol, and Susut-gol valleys converge on either side. It is the main temple of the 9th district of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. It was originally founded by Geukdan in 493 AD (King Soji's 15th year) and called Yugasa. Later, in 832 AD (King Heungdeok's 7th year), the royal preceptor Simji reconstructed it. Despite being winter, paulownia flowers were in full bloom around the temple, so it was renamed Donghwasa. Most of the existing buildings date from a restoration during the reign of King Yeongjo, including the Daeungjeon Hall, Yeonggyeongjeon, Cheontaegak, Yeongsanjeon, Bongseoru, Simgeomdang, Chilseonggak, Sansingak, Eunghyanggak, Wonimgak, and Cheonanmun. Subsidiary hermitages include Geumdangam, Biroam, Naewonam, Budoam, Yangjinam, and Yeombulam. Donghwasa is also the gateway to various hiking trails in Palgongsan National Park. Paths from the temple lead to Yeombul Peak or Dong Peak via Yeombulam Hermitage, ascend ridges along Bindae-gol valley, and follow Pokpogol from the temple stay entrance to Doma-jae (Sinryeong-jae) or Bareun-jae. Throughout the year, many visitors come to enjoy walking along mountain and valley scenery.
