The Child monk statue near the pond was so impressive.

There were lots of children monk statue in other temples. But unlike those statues in other temples, this statue was very serious in meditation.
Just looking at this serious meditation statue made my mind peaceful. I could’ve shared the feeling of peace with the statue. I mean, it’s like that I could receive mysterious energy from the serious statue.

As walking to the entrance of the temple, there was a pavilion for the bell.

This pavilion was very interesting, its pillars were bending. It seemed not easy to maintain the balance and to sustain the weight of the roof. It looks strange though, this pavilion with bending pillars made me very peaceful.

The curved line could be said as the most important characteristic in Korean traditional architecture. I could find other curved lines among the buildings in this temple as below.
