Gilsangsa Temple

This temple was built on the site of Daewongak, a former upscale restaurant. It was founded and lived in by a court monk named Musoyu (non-possession), and many people come to pay their respects to the monk's relics and ashes. The temple features the Gilsang pagoda and a statue of Kannon Bodhisattva, which is a prayer for religious harmony, as well as programs such as Buddhist ceremonies and temple stays. Purple Aquilegias bloom in the spring, and red spider lilies and autumn foliage make it a popular photo location in Seoul.
