Info onlyAbout
Borimsa Temple was founded in 1957 and is located at the entrance of Sara-bong Peak in Jeju. The temple grounds include Daeungjeon (Main Hall), Beopdang (Dharma Hall), Cheonwangmun (Heavenly Kings Gate), Borimsa Budo (Stupa), and Borimsa Tap (Pagoda). In particular, the wooden seated Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva statue, designated as Jeju-do Tangible Cultural Heritage on May 15, 2002, is enshrined as the temple's main Buddha. This statue, crafted in the late Joseon period at Seonamsa Temple in Suncheon, Jeollanam-do, was brought to Jeju when Borimsa was founded. As Borimsa sits at the foot of Sara-bong, one of Jeju's oreum (volcanic cones), it is frequently visited not only by Buddhists but also by Jeju residents and tourists. Around the temple grounds, visitors can also explore Chilmeoridang Yeongdeunggut Transmission Center, Mochungsa Shrine, Udo Library, and the National Jeju Museum, making for a worthwhile addition to a Jeju travel itinerary.
