Baegyangsa Temple is a historic temple built in the 6th century located on Baegamsan Mountain. Walking through the forest path, visitors are greeted by a serene lake overlooked by Ssanggyeru Pavilion at the entrance of Baegyangsa Temple, creating a picturesque scene especially during autumn with its vibrant foliage. Surrounding the temple are over 5,000 torreyas, some over 500 years old, lending a lush ambiance to the area. Baegyangsa Temple is picturesque in every season and offers temple stay programs for visitors seeking a serene retreat.
