Paintings on the Ceiling of Wontong-Jeon in Chiljangsa Temple, Anseong City

Wontong-jeon Hall was very special because of the paintings on the ceiling. It seemed the first time for me to see those various paintings on the ceiling. Usually, the patterns were drawn on the ceiling in other cases.

It seemed that each painting had its own meaning, but unfortunately, I could not find out the meaning.

There were patterns on the ceiling. But I could not understand the meaning of the mixed patterns between the octagonal and hexagonal structures.

While looking around such many temples, I didn't notice the patterns and the paintings on the ceiling.
