Romanized from Korean under the Revised Romanization of Korean (Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism Notice 2014-42). It is a transcription, not an official English name.

전남광주통합특별시 곡성군 곡성읍 월봉리 327

Jeonnamgwangjutonghapteukbyeol-si. The register lists its founding year as 고려초.

The public register has no coordinates for this temple, so the on-site stamp does not work here. Keep the visit in your own memory instead.

Recorded origin, in the register's own words

신라 진평왕 582년경 신덕왕후가 이절에 와서 신덕사를 창건 신라 무열왕 7년 원효대사가 도림사로 개칭

This paragraph is the origin and history field of the traditional temple register published by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, copied exactly. We leave it in Korean rather than translating it, because a translation would put founding dates, people and schools of Buddhism into words the source never used. Nothing here was added or edited by us.
