Daeheungsa Temple, located on Duryunsan Mountain, is said to have been founded by Monk Ado in the 22nd year of King Seong of Baekje. In 2018, it was inscribed on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List as part of the “Sansa, Buddhist Mountain Monasteries in Korea.” Also known as a temple where the spirit of Buddhism for national protection remains alive, Daeheungsa Temple served as the main base for monk soldiers led by Seosan Daesa during the Japanese invasions of Korea. Later, Seon Master Choui, who believed that the truth of the Buddha and the joy of meditation could be found in tea, built Iljiam Hermitage in the valley of Daeheungsa Temple. There, he devoted himself to solitary practice for more than 40 years, earning the temple recognition as a sacred site of Korea’s tea culture. Situated in a wide mountain basin, Daeheungsa Temple displays a unique layout. Geumdangcheon Stream runs through the grounds, dividing the buildings into North and South Precincts. Unlike standard temple layouts, these buildings are arranged freely, creating a distinctive spatial composition. Set farther back behind the South Precinct are the Pyochungsa Shrine, dedicated to Seosan Daesa, and Daegwangmyeonjeon Hall within Donggukseonwon Temple. Among the treasures of the temple is the Rock‑carved Seated Buddha at Bungmireugam Hermitage, designated as a National Treasure. Seosan Daesa Relics Hall houses 24 cultural artifacts, including royal gifts from King Seonjo, such as a jade alms bowl and a jadeite (green jade) alms bowl, along with Seosan Daesa’s calligraphy, sedan chair, shoes, and Buddhist scriptures written in gold and silver.
