Pyochungsa | 景点信息 | K-Travel Mate

Designated as Gyeongsangnam-do Monument No. 17, Pyochungsa Temple was named by the state to honor the loyal spirit of Saimyeongdaesa (四溟大師), who distinguished himself during the Japanese invasions of Korea (Imjin War). Although it was rebuilt in 1715 (41st year of King Sukjong's reign), most buildings except Eungjinjeon (應眞殿) were destroyed by fire in 1926 and later reconstructed to the present day. Main cultural properties and buildings include National Treasure No. 75, the Bronze Silver-incense Burner (靑銅含銀香), Treasure No. 467, the Three-story Stone Pagoda, as well as provincial cultural properties such as the Stone Lantern, Pyochung Seowon (表忠書院), and Daegangjeon (大光殿). There are 25 buildings and over 300 relics of Saimyeongdaesa preserved here.
