Introduction
Yeonhosa Temple is located in Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. With its back to Gayaseong Fortress, the temple faces Hwanggang River. The view of the gently flowing river from the pavilion is relaxing, but the view of the moon reflecting perfectly off the water at night is a sight not to be missed.
The temple was built in AD 643, during the Three Kingdoms period by Buddhist Master Wawoo to comfort the spirits of Kim Chun-chu's daughter, Gotasorang, her husband Kim Pum-seok (Juk-juk), and the 2,000 Silla soldiers who died during a battle with Baekje in the previous year.
