Heungryunsa Temple is a missionary center of the Hwaeomsa Temple. Located in Jukdobong Park (downtown Suncheon), the site was previously used as an archery range.

*History
Heungryunsa Temple is a branch of Hwaeomsa Temple, which is the 19th local temple of Jogye Order. It is said that Heungryunsa Temple was constructed during the reign of King Seonjo of the Joseon dynasty and that the site was used as a place where naval forces practiced archery during the Imjin War in 1592. At the same time, the temple was the first military base of monk-turned-military officers from Hwaeomsa, Songgwangsa, and Seonamsa Temples.

The current building was reconstructed in 1986 by Monk Jongwon, who is still the chief abbot of the temple.

Overlooking the Suncheon Dongcheon near Suncheon South Market, Suncheon Guest House Nreem reminds us of 'the meaning of living slowly.' It is a recommended place to take a leisurely break. It is located midway between Suncheon Station and Suncheon Bus Terminal and is popular with young travelers. The lobby on the first floor has recommended books and a place to sit down and read, while the underground cafeteria has a breakfast space; a kitchen that allows simple cooking; a bookcase filled with books; a board game room which is a good place to play with other guests; and a music facility where people can listen to cassette tapes and CDs. The guest rooms include a room for two-to-three persons with a single bed and a double bed; a dormitory for 4 persons; and a dormitory for 6 persons with a double deck bed. Events such as chimaek (Chicken & Beer) parties are held frequently, which is expected because it’s a lodging house that hosts many young travelers, and it also organizes the first-come, first-served Yeosu Night Tours for guests. As there is a private garden right next to it, it is also a good idea to play with the dog that lives in the premises. They take care of a discount coupon for entrance to Suncheon Bay National Garden, which is about 2 kilometers from Nreem.
