Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Jeondeungsa Daeungjeon, the main worship hall, has finely carved multi-tier wooden ornamentation at the top of each column as well as between columns. Three Buddhas are enshrined in the hall, which features a lavishly decorated ceiling with bright colors and sculptures of animals and flowers like dragons, phoenixes and lotus blossoms. The alter and the canopy over it are also extravagantly decorated. The four external corner columns have carvings of naked women at the apex. Legend says that the architect of the building placed her there for her sin after his lover ran away from him during the construction work. Jeondeungsa, situated on Mount Jeongjok, was established by Monk Adohwasang of Goguryeo when Queen Jeonhwa, donated a jade lantern to the temple.
