Sinheungsa is located under the old
ruined castle of Seolseong Mountain.
There is a temple called Seolseongsa
in the period of the Three States of
Korea (The exact years are not known)
when the building of Seolsung (Snow
Castle) was in process.
The oldest remaining record should be
the description in the book <Yeojidoseo>
which was written in the 36th year of
King Yeongjo (1760). It means that Seolsung
was mentioned in the book with the record
“Now there is a small Buddhist temple”
This might be the first record about
Sinheungsa. The supporting fact is that
the temple was mentioned in the book
<Garamgo> written by Gyeongjun
Shin (1712~1718) which was written in
the period of <Yeojidoseo>. |

Yeonhwa Jeongsa is located near the
edge of a northern mountain range
that is on the opposite side of Seolseong
Mountain that has Sinheungsa and Seolseong.
It is located near the boundary of
Seolseong-myeon and Janghowon-eup.
Originally Seolseong-myeon, which
was located in the northern area within
the jurisdiction of Icheon, was Wonbuk-myeon
Wonbuk-myeon Taean-gun Chungcheongnam-do.
Later the history of Eumjusa, which
was built in the years of King Yeojong
of Goryeo (1105 ~ 1122), was not known
but Daewoongjeon was built on the
spot where the temple site remained
in 1967. Sansingak and Yosache were
built to call it, Yeonhwajeongsa. |

| Yeongwonsa is located near the southern
edge of Wonjeok Mountain. It was built
by monk Haeo in the 7th year of Queen
Seondeok (638). It was built in a slightly
higher position than the current site
at the beginning. From the beginning
to Japanese Imperialism, it was called
Yeongwonam. In those days, the agate
(obtained from water) was used to build
the status of a pharmacist called Yeoraejwasang.
According to the Sajeokgi, after about
400 years Hyegeogooksa rebuilt the burned
Yeongwonam in 1068 (the 22nd year of
King Munjong of Goryeo). The ginkgo
trees, which were planted at that time,
are still alive. |

Yeongwolam is located in the place
where you can look along the edge
of Seolbong Mountain of Icheon-si.
In the years of King Munmu of Silla,
Euisangdaesa (625~702) built Yeongwolsa
and called it Bukaksa. Also the name
of the mountain became Bugaksa. But
there are no supporting documents
that can prove the rumor so no one
knows whether or no it’s true. But
Yeongwolam has the Yeongwolam Maaeyeorae
Ipsang (822nd treasure) which is estimated
to have been built in the middle of
Goryeo. Seokjo Kwangbae, which was
assigned as the 3rd Korean relics
and Yeonhwajwabae, are estimated to
have been created between the unified
Silla and early Goryeo periods.
By this evidence, it seems Yeongwolam
was pretty prosperous between the
late unified Silla and Goryeo periods.
In the 50th year of Yeongjo (774),
Yeongwoldaesa Nanggyu rebuilt Bukaksa
and changed the temple’s name to Yeongwolsa
by his aho (the nicknames of monks). |
