Hongseong Seongyeonsa Temple

석련사(홍성) · Chungnam · Temples

Seongnyeonsa Temple is located on the side of Baegwolsan Mountain, and is a branch temple of Sudeoksa Temple. The path to the temple is paved, making it easy to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. A bit further up the mountain from Daeungjeon Hall, visitors will be greeted by a large stone-carved Buddha that was made recently. The lack of moss and weathering makes it stand out from other rock-carved Buddha statues, while showing the unwavering faith of the local Buddhists.
