Introduction
Bosu Temple is located at the foot of Mt. Geumjeong in Busan, South Korea. It is one of the major Buddhist temples in Korea. The temple was built by Master Yihyang during the 18th year of King Munmu of Silla. According to the historical record "Dongguk Yeoji Seungnam," there is a golden well on the ridge of Mt. Geumjeong, and golden fish descend from the sky to play in the well, which is how the mountain and temple got their names. However, during the Japanese invasions of Korea in 1592, the temple was burned down. The current temple buildings were reconstructed in 1713 and represent the latest version of the temple.
Bosu Temple has a long history, and the Daeungjeon Hall and the three-story stone pagoda, which are of significant historical value, have been designated as national treasures in Korea.
