YONGJOOSA TEMPLE - Hwaseong Yongjusa Temple (용주사(화성),SOUTH KOREA
YONGJOOSA TEMPLE
- Yongjoosa is a head temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. It is located in on the slopes of Hwasan in Taean-eup , Hwaseong , in the province of Gyeonggi , South Korea . The temple's name means "dragon jewel temple."
Yongjusa Temple is located near Yungneung and Geolleung Royal Tombs. This site was originally the location of Garyangsa Temple, which was constructed in 854, the 16th year of King Munseong of the Silla Kingdom. The temple was very famous as it was surrounded by beautiful mountains and crystal clear waters. However, the temple was destroyed by fire during the Byungjahoran (the second Manchu invasion of Korea).
During the Joseon dynasty, King Jeongjo moved the tomb of his father to this spot, and built Yongjusa Temple here to pray for the repose of his father’s soul. It is said that one night before the temple was completed, King Jeongjo dreamt of a dragon ascending to the sky holding a magic ball in its mouth. He therefore named the temple “Yongjusa”, which means the temple of a dragon with a magic ball in Korean. .... These days Yongjusa temple and the Yungneung and Geolleung tombs are highly valued for their cultural heritage.
