Overview

Located in Mt. Byeonsan Peninsula National Park, Wolmyeongam Hermitage was originally built in 692 AD. Since then, it has been destroyed and renovated several times, and what remains is a small hermitage. The site is a popular attraction not only because of the temple, but because of the magnificent sunsets viewed from this spot.

The breathtaking view from Wolmyeongam as the sun sinks into the sea cannot be expressed in words.
