The Hanchaedang Hanok Stay Center consists of two hanok buildings with the same traditional structure, including a tiled-roof, maru (wooden floor), and gudeul (Korean floor heating system). The interiors offer a harmonious combination of modernity and the features of a traditional hanok house. Each room has a low table for four people, a central living room with en suite toilet and bidet, a main room (Anbang) with an en suite bathtub, toilet and bidet, another room (Geonneonbang), and a kitchen with a wine bar table. The main room has two sets of bedding for four people, while the other room has one set of bedding for two people. The extra bedding is always placed inside the wardrobe. Guests can cook in the kitchen, but they may only hold a BBQ outside. (There is a charge for the BBQ set.) The house overlooks the school playground below the building and the beach in the distance. The Hanchaedang is also a well-known film location with great interiors and attractive exterior views that have featured in various interview programs and TV dramas.

+82-41-663-3925

The exact founding date of Munsusa Temple is unknown because there are no official records that have been discovered. The temple is estimated to date back to the Goryeo dynasty due to a prayer found in 1973 at the Gilt-bronze Seated Buddha in the temple’s Geungnaksiljeon Hall dated 1346. Around 600 items were discovered along with the prayer, including unbleached ramie cloth, a short-sleeved gown, rice, and barley. Munsunsa has the tranquil atmosphere of a mountain temple. When spring arrives, cherry blossom flowers and wild flowers bloom across the mountain and the nearby cattle farm call to mind a traditional Korean painting.

Munsusa Temple's Geungnaksiljeon Hall is a beautiful building constructed in the Jusimpo style (the column brackets placed only on top of the columns) combined with Dapo style (the column brackets placed between columns as well as on top of the columns). It is designated as Chungcheongnam-do Tangible Cultural Property No. 13. Inside the gorgeously and majestically carved hall are many relics including Gilt-bronze Seated Buddha, Samsebulsang statues (statues of Buddhas of Three Times (past, present and future)), Nahansang statues (statues of disciples of Buddha), and various portraits of Buddha.

The Gilt-bronze Seated Buddha (x_height: 70cm, length between knees: 50cm) was created in 1346. It is a fine example of late Goryo dynasty style Buddha statue along with Gilt-bronze Seated Bhaisajyaguru Buddha of Janggoksa Temple (Treasure No.337).
