Arrival to The Smile of Baekjae Kingdom

in #travel6 years ago

Finally I could see a bunch of rocks on the corner of the steps.

It was impressive there was a pine tree on the top of the rock.

There was the carved Buddha statues on the surface of the Rock

The position where the rock stood was exceptionally wonderful.
In this position, it is said that the expression of the statue is changing at morning and evening.

This relic was found in 1954 AD. It meant that this statue had slept in this mountain for more than 1500 years. It is mysterious how people had not known the existence of the statue in this temple.

It was morning when I got to there.
In this posting, I’d like to show you the whole appearance of the statue.

As I posted before, the rocks in Korean mountain are usually the granite.

So it is very hard to cave the statue on the rock.

It is always interesting reading through your post as it always contain historical values. Thanks for exposure
Beautiful pictures between.

@slowwalker,
Wow it's wonderful! They crafted these statue of Lord Buddha on a rock so brilliantly! One other thing that I was curious is, similar type of carved Buddha statue is at my country.
It's at Buduruwagala! here I am attaching it with this comment! Did you notice similarities! I wish you might visit my country and I can assure you can see lots of Craved Buddha statue here as well! Thanks for sharing such wonderful and rare experiences with us!

Cheers~

Your travels are amazing. I love seeing more of these Buddhist temples. I think I need to save and travel further.

Amazing mountain reliefs. This is a very delicate and painstaking work. Not often you can find such rock paintings. I've only seen this in Lucerne in Switzerland.

Very wonderful stone carving art 🎨... I love your photography & post 📪 my dear lovely friend @slowwalker

It must also be a very important place visually if it has been chosen to accommodate this statue ..

1500 years wow, this is indeed a place to visit. Really love how you use your time to show us this amazing place. @slowwalker
