Birthplace of Yeongnang
Jeollanam-do(Gangjin-gun)

Kim Yun-sik was born on this site on January 16, 1903 as the first-born of two sons and three daughters. Under the pen name Yeongnang, he was active in literature until his death on September 29, 1950. Among the 80 poems he published, more than 60 were written in this place where he lived a life resisting Japanese imperialism and refusing to change his name to a Japanese name. After he moved to Seoul in 1948, his birthplace was resold several times, but the county of Gangjin-gun bought it in 1985 to restore it to its original state with a thatched-roof. The site features many of the poet’s writing materials and the site has a small well, camellia trees, jangdokdae (a platform where large clay pots used for storing food are kept), persimmon trees, and a peony garden.

Jijangjeongsa Temple
Chungcheongnam-do(Nonsan-si)

Upon finishing his thousand-day prayers in Mount Gyeryongsan in June 1980, Monk Deoksan came down to the site of an old temple in Noseong-myeon, Hwagok-ri and built Jijangjeongsa. The upper part of the current Daeungjeon Hall had once been the main hall of the Jijangam Hermitage and was originally about 33 square meters. The Daeungjeon Hall was later expanded to its current size. In 1990, an auditorium hall was built to offer services to children and teenagers. The building is currently used to accommodate after-school classes for Seonjae Preschool. The temple is open for praying meditation and also has a charnel house. The temple and its followers are loyally devoted to the practice of Buddhism in its purest form.

Manyeonsa Temple
Jeollanam-do(Hwasun-gun)

Manyeonsa Temple is known to have been built in 1208, the fourth year of King Heejong’s (r. 1204-1211) reign during the Goryeo Dynasty. It is said that Manyeonsa Temple was constructed by Great Monk Manyeon after he dreamt of 16 nahans, Buddha’s disciples, preparing to build a temple to preserve Buddha’s statue when taking a short nap during his journey back to Songwangsa Temple in Jogyesan Mountain from Wonhyosa Temple in Mudeungsan Mountain. When he awoke from his nap, he noticed that snow had completely covered his nearby surroundings except for the exact spot where he lied down, which remained so warm that snow had melted and steam was rising from the ground. He then settled in the area by building a dugout where he continued to practice asceticism and later built Manyeonsa Temple. The temple was partially destroyed during the Korean War (1950) and restoration efforts were made in 1978.
