Oeyeondo Island (외연도)
Chungcheongnam-do(Boryeong-si)

Located about 50㎞ west of Boryeong-si, Oeyeondo Island is the farthest of over 70 islands off the coast of the city, and has a population of only a couple of hundred people. Designated as one of eight treasures of Boryeong-si, the island offers a small hiking trail that takes its course through an ancient evergreen forest and towering sea cliff views of surrounding islands. Island History The history of the island's inhabitation dates back to 202 BC when a Chinese General named Jeonhoeng settled here with about 500 followers after fleeing his failing Je Kingdom. The shrine in the evergreen forest is said to have been erected by the General to commemorate his arrival on the island. Today, a festival is held for him on every January 14th in the hope of healthy child bearing, followed by another festival on January 15th for the Yongwang (Water Dragon Spirit) in the hope of good haul from the Sea.

Uiseong Gounsa Temple (고운사 (의성))
Gyeongsangbuk-do(Uiseong-gun)

Gounsa Temple lies on Deungunsan Mountain in Uiseong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and was built by Monk Uisang in 681 during the reign of King Sinmun of the Silla Kingdom. Although the pronunciation of the name was never changed, its meaning slightly changed from “High Cloud Temple” to “Solitary Cloud Temple” after Choi Chi-won, a renowned scholar in the late Silla Period, helped to build two pavilions (Gaunru and Uhwaru) and renamed it. It is Branch Temple No.16 of the Korean Buddhist order, Jogyejong, and manages temples in Uiseong, Andong, Yeongju, Bonghwa, and Yeongyang. Befitting its meaning, the temple is surrounded by outstanding scenery on Deungunsan Mountain, meaning “Riding on the Clouds.” Quite isolated from villages, the temple is a very quiet, serene place. Gounsa Temple is home to one of the most cherished pieces of architecture, Gaunru Pavilion (“Floating over the Clouds”). This elegant pavilion is propped up by wooden columns, which are, in turn, supported by foundation stones. It looks as if the pavilion placed its feet in the water while standing. Among the many buildings comprising the temple complex, Yeonsujeon Hall is a unique building that was built to store Eocheop (the genealogical record of royal families) in 1774 (20th year of King Yeongjo). As a royal building, it shows the Confucian architectural style, different from other Buddhist buildings within the temple.
