Destination briefing

Why travelers stop here

Janghang-ri Temple Site is a temple site located east of Tohamsan Mountain in Janghang-ri, Munmudaewang-myeon, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do. The exact name of the temple is unknown, so it is called Janghang-ri Temple Site after the village name Janghang-ri. There were east and west pagodas centered around the main hall site, but after being collapsed by grave robbers, only the west pagoda, which was restorable, was newly restored in 1932.

It is a five-story stone pagoda with a height of 9m, showing typical characteristics of Silla stone pagoda style. It has a double base platform, and only the base part of the finial remains. The lower base platform is relatively wide, giving a sense of stability. On the four sides of the first-story body stone, two doors decorated with goblin-shaped iron rings are carved, and a pair of guardian kings are delicately carved on each side, showing a rare technique. Based on the carving technique, it is evaluated as a work from the 8th century.
