As soon as passing through the pavilion for the bell, there was a gate of Haetal-mun, the last gate to Daewung-jeon. Suddenly a monk appeared and beaten a wood block. I didn’t notice the meaning of beating the wood block. Some one explained that the sound meant it’s the time for lunch.

In this small temple, you can take a lunch at the temple, when you arrive in time.

Gaesim-sa was relatively small size of the temple. But it have preserved its building until now without any destruction. The first building I saw as Daewung-jeon serving for Shakamuni Buddha.

The pagoda in front of Daewung-jeon seems to be made in Goryeo dynasty. It shows typical style of Goryeo kingdom.

I was walking around Daewung-jeon. Its corner stone and the foundation informed me this hall could be built earlier than I read in the board.

The foundation looked to be influenced from earlier style of construction. The foundation of Daewung-jeon was similar to that of Shilla dynasty. What could explain this gap of 500 years ?

Actually this temple was built in the era of the last king of Baekae dynasty. Though the history, it had been repaired several time up until now. But there is a strong possibility that the stone parts seemed to be used in repairing the temple. If so, the architectural style of Baekjae looked as same as that of Shilla dynasty.

I took the pics of this hall, and the pattern of the window was so excellent.
