Beopjusa Temple

Reviewed By elysiansoul - Seoul, South Korea

Beopjusa Temple, nestled in Songnisan National Park, was first established 553 A.D. Historically a royal temple that is home to several treasures. Hearing the monks chant sutras before snacking on Hotteok was a bonus. There is so much history here. The trailhead entrances are next to the temple entry, but the wall to the temple is an easy path. Definitely recommend.

Songnisan National Park

Reviewed By dawns04966 - Farmington, United States

The National Park has something for everyone with small shops and restaurants lining the entry road, sculptures in the wooded park, beautiful hiking trails with frequent rest/tea shops, and temples to explore. They have somewhat useful maps at the information center, I recommend bringing one. Just past the entry gate is Beopjusa Temple with Palsangjeon, possibly the oldest and tallest pagoda in Korea and an impressive 33 meter high Buddha covered in gold leaf. The hiking trails begin just beyond the temple and start out very easy and run along a nice lake - definitely recommend the path over the road which runs essentially parallel and meet at the first big intersection. About 3k up the gradual path the trail splits to go either to Munjangdae Rock at 1054m elevation or the peak, Cheonwangbong at 1058m elevation. Both are about 3.8k up and there is a trail between (about 3.1k) so you can get to both spots and have a round trip only retracing the initial 3-ish kilometers between the split and the Beopjusa Temple. The rock is impressive and build in stairs allow a smooth hike to the top with excellent views of the surrounding mountains. The hike over to the peak was fun, almost a ridge-line with views on both sides of the mountain. Personally I think the view from the rock was better than the peak, of you are short on time this may be the more impressive site. Be careful to watch the signs and the map to ensure you don’t walk down the other side of the mountain, ending up far from your car or bus. There are more temples to see along the routes and plenty of opportunities to purchase drinks or snacks along the way. We had a beautiful day and not too crowded on the trails. I would recommend this hike to friends/family as an easy to moderately difficult hike with rewarding views.
