Steal Flag Holder, Leaving Chiljangsa Temple

After looking the sarira stupas in the corner of the temple place, I left the temple to eat something.

As turning the corner of the road, there stood some high flag holder with stone supporter which was called 'Dang Gan Ji Ju'

The flag holder of the steal I saw before was that of Gapsa Temple in Gyeoryongsan Mountain. At that time it seemed that I heard that the flag holder in Gapsa temple was the only one steal flag holder in Korea.

So I stopped my car and walked there, it stood relatively far from the temple. It meant that the temple place in the past was much wider than in the present time.

With the help of the explanation board, I found out there were 3 steal flag holders left in Korea. As I introduced before, this flag holder was used for Buddhism ceremony.

There was a stone monument on which the record of rebuilding this temple was carved. This temple was rebuilt in 1617 AD. In my guess, this temple was supposed to be destroyed during the war against the Japanese army during 1592-1599.
