Munsusa Temple (Seosan) (문수사(서산))
Chungcheongnam-do(Seosan-si)

The exact founding date of Munsusa Temple is unknown because there are no official records that have been discovered. The temple is estimated to date back to the Goryeo Dynasty, because a prayer found at the Gilt-bronze Seated Buddha in the temple’s Geungnaksiljeon Hall (hall of paradise) in 1973 dates back to 1346. Around 600 items were discovered along with the prayer, including unbleached ramie cloth, a short-sleeved gown, rice, and barley. Munsunsa has the tranquil atmosphere of a mountain temple. When spring arrives, cherry blossom flowers and wild flowers bloom across the mountain and the nearby cattle farm call to mind a traditional Korean painting. Munsusa Geungnaksiljeon Hall is a beautiful building constructed according to Jusimpo style (the column brackets placed only on top of the columns) combined with Dapo style (the column brackets placed between columns as well as on top of the columns). It is designated as Chungcheongnam-do Tangible Cultural Property No. 13. Inside the gorgeously and majestically carved hall are many relics including Gilt-bronze Seated Buddha, Samsebulsang statues (statues of Buddhas of Three Times (past, present and future)), Nahansang statues (statues of disciples of Buddha), and various portraits of Buddha. The Gilt-bronze Seated Buddha (x_height: 70cm, length between knees: 50cm) was created in 1346 (the second year of King Chungmok’s reign, the29th king of the Goryeo Dynasty). It is one of the fine examples of late Goryo dynasty style Buddha statue along with Gilt-bronze Seated Bhaisajyaguru Buddha of Janggoksa Temple (Treasure No.337).

Orijangnim (영천 자천리 오리장림)
Gyeongsangbuk-do(Yeongcheon-si)

Historically the forest was called Orijangnim (오리장림) but nowadays it is also widely known as the Jacheon Forest (자천숲). The name Orijangnim originates from the fact that in olden days, before roads were established, there was a thick forest that stretched as far as "O-ri (five-ri or 1963m)"surrounding Jacheon-ri. As the national road was developed, the forest was divided into two parts, and afterwards major parts of the forest were lost to school buildings, wider roads and Typhoon Sara. It’s surely a pity that only the remaining settlements near Jacheon village can give us a feeling on what life was like in the forest long ago. However, as you drive down the un-crowded road, surely you will be able to feel the tranquility of the region. Around 400 years ago when the forest was first created, villagers annually held a ritual at midnight on the 15th of January of the lunar year to pay tribute to their ancestors and wish for peace and safety in the village. The forest houses more than 10 species of trees that come in a variety of fantastic shapes looking just like potted plants. In the summer, the cool wind of Gohyeoncheon Stream, flows in front of Jacheon Village and keeps visitors cool and refreshed, while shade from the trees of Orijangnim seem to completely blot out the the sun. Composition of Orijangnim The forest has a total of 12 species of trees made up of 9 species of 231 broadleaf trees including a gingko tree, Glandulosa willow; oriental oak; Hemipteleae davidii; Zelkova serrata; and Celtis Sinensis, to name a few. As for evergreen trees, there are 3 species of them including pine trees, black pine trees; and the Himalayan Cedar. Most of the trees in the forest are huge with an average age ranging from 20 to 350 years and a x_height of six to 24 meters.
