Introduction

석굴암(국보)은 신라 경덕왕 10년에 당시의 재상인 김대성에 의해 창건되었다고 전해진다. 불국사에서 산등성이를 타고 등산로로 3㎞, 신도로로는 9㎞ 거리에 있는 석굴암의 구조는 방형과 원형, 직선과 곡선, 평면과 구면이 조화를 이루며 특히, 벽 주위에 조각된 38체는 어느 것 하나 걸작이 아닌 것이 없고 전체적인 조화를 통해 고도의 철학성과 과학적인 면모를 나타내고 있다. 중앙에는 백색 화강암으로 된 여래좌상의 본존불이 동해를 굽어보고 있으며, 여래좌상이 바라보는 시선은 문무왕 수중왕릉인 봉길리 앞 대왕암을 향한다. 수중왕을 수호하는 감은사터, 용이 된 문무왕을 보았다는 이견대가 대왕암 인근 해안에 있으며, 불국사와 석굴암은 1995년 12월 6일 해인사 팔만대장경과 종묘와 함께 유네스코 세계문화유산으로 공식 지정되어 보호되고 있다. 석굴암에서 바라보는 수평선 너머 붉은 해는 붉게 물든 하늘과 바다는 장관이다. 석굴암에서 해돋이 구경 후에는 토함산에서 바로 동해안으로 넘어가는 석장로가 1998년에 개설되어 쉽게 감포, 양북 앞바다로 갈 수 있어 전국 최고의 청정해역의 맛을 자랑하는 회를 즐기고 감은사지와 문무대왕릉을 관광하면 더욱 멋진 여행이 된다.
