| Muryangsujeon Hall | |
Muryangsujeon Hall was built as the main prayer hall of Buseoksa Temple, and now houses a statue of Amitabha Buddha. It was originally built during the reign of King Munmu (r. 661-681) of Silla, and Unfortunately, the hall was burnt down in 1358 (the 7th year of King Gongmin’s reign), but was reconstructed in 1376 (the 2nd year of King U’s reign), and then embellished with a multi-colored decorative painting during the reign of King Gwanghaegun (r. 1608-1623) of the Joseon Dynasty. An Amitabha Buddha is enshrined on the western wall of the hall. |
