Donghaksa Temple, Buddhist temple in Gongju, South Korea
The temple stands in the eastern valley of Gyeryongsan Mountain, with Munpilbong Peak rising in front of the main structures at 36.35N, 127.22E.
Founded in 724 by monk Sangwon-josa, the temple underwent reconstruction in 920 under King Taejo Wang Geon to serve as protection for the Goryeo Kingdom.
This academic institute trains 150 Buddhist nuns in traditional practices and maintains two structures designated as Korean National Treasures.
Visitors can access the temple via Bus 107 from Hyeonchungwon Station, with admission fees of 2,000 won for adults and discounts for children and seniors.
A 3-kilometer cherry blossom tunnel leads to the temple entrance, making it the most visited location on Gyeryongsan Mountain during spring flowering season.
