The Beauty of the Main Hall of Naesosa Temple

[Narration]
The 'Daeungbojeon', or the main hall of Naesosa Temple is a well-preserved cultural heritage made by using traditional joint construction methods, in which no nails are used.

It's not as big or colorful as most other Buddhist temples in Korea, but it blends in with the nature of Neunggasan Mountain behind. It’s also an important cultural heritage both in the aspects of architecture and art.

Go take a look at the murals of Maitreya on the back wall of the wall. You’ll see a painting of bodhisattva Avalokitesvara. It’s the biggest painting of bodhisattva Avalokitesvara in Korea. There is a legend about this painting. The legend has it that your wishes will come true you if the eyes of the painting follow you when you walk to the side while looking directly into the eyes.
