434-2 Geumosan-ro, Gumi-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do

Haeunsa Temple, nestled on the slopes of Geumosan Mountain in Gumi, offers convenient access owing to the opening of the Geumosan cable car. Originally founded as Daehyeolsa Temple towards the end of the Silla period, it underwent significant reconstruction after its destruction during the Japanese Invasion of Korea. The temple was rechristened as Haeunsa Temple in 1956, coinciding with the construction of Daeungjeon Hall. This hall is a sanctuary for the Seated Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, sculpted in plaster. It also hosts Stone Arhat statues, believed to be the work of Japanese artisans during their occupation of Korea.

Yaksaam Hermitage was founded during the Silla dynasty atop Geumosan Mountain in Gumi City. Yaksajeon Hall, the centerpiece of Yaksaam Hermitage, stands at the base of a rocky cliff. The granite Seated Rock-Carved Medicine Buddha, enshrined in Yaksajeon Hall, along with those at Sudoam Hermitage on Sudosan Mountain and at Samseongam Hermitage on Hwangaksan Mountain, are collectively known as the Three Brothers. Spring water flows out of a crack in the rock wall on the east side of the temple. Legend has it that in the past, grains of rice once fell one by one from this hole.
