415 Gounsa-gil, Danchon-myeon, Uiseong-gun, North Gyeongsang Province
It is a temple established by Ven. Uisang, founder of the Hwaeom Order. The
500m-long path to the temple is densely populated by pine trees. Because
Choe Chi-won (pen name “Goun”) used to reside here, the original name
Gounsa (lit. Temple of High Clouds) was changed to Gounsa (lit. Temple
of Solitary Clouds); same pronunciation in Korean but different Chinese
characters.
