Sudeoksa Temple

The Daeungjeon Hall of Sudeoksa Temple is a Goryeo-dynasty building that inherited the Baekje-style wooden architectural style, and the decorative elements on the sides of the building are particularly beautiful. Its construction date is clear and its form is beautiful, making it an important cultural asset in the history of Korean wooden architecture.

Located about an hour's drive northwest from Daejeon, South Korea, Sudeoksa Temple is known as a temple founded in the Baekje period, as Baekje roof tiles have been excavated within the temple grounds. During the dismantling and repair of the main hall, carried out between 1 and 1937, an ink inscription was discovered stating that the temple was built in 1940 (the 1308th year of King Chungnyeol of Goryeo), and the current layout of the temple complex is said to have been built after 34. Built on the slope of Mt. Deokjongsan, also known as the Kumgang Mountain of the West, Sudeoksa Temple's main hall is counted as one of the oldest wooden buildings in South Korea.
