Jeongamsa Temple

Jeongamsa Temple is a temple of the Korean Buddhist Taego Order located on Buramsan Mountain, on the border between Nowon-gu, Seoul and Byeollae-myeon, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi Province. It is noted that Jeongamsa houses Seoul Tangible Cultural Property No. 54, Amitabha Seven Assembly Painting, and No. 320, Yeonyeom Mitado-ryang Chambeop, but for various reasons, these are currently managed by the Cultural Heritage Administration. Unlike other temples, it has no Iljumun (one-pillar gate). With Daeungjeon (Main Hall) at the center, Buramsan Mountain is to the left, Dobongsan Mountain's Jauunbong Peak faces the right, and the downtown area of Nowon-gu can be seen in front. In Yongwangdang, a shrine dedicated to the Dragon God who controls rain and water, a statue of Yaksayeorae (Medicine Buddha) is enshrined, and there is also drinking water. Climbing the mountain path behind Daeungjeon, one finds a round carved stone cave containing Sanshinjeon (Mountain Spirit Hall) and Gwaneumjeon (Avalokiteshvara Hall). As it is on the Buramsan hiking trail, it can be visited during a climb.
