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

보광사는 1942년 개인이 별장으로 지은 건물을 개조하여 사찰로 운영하고 있다. 도지정 유형문화재 제172호인 범종을 소장하고 있는 사찰로써 문화유산으로서 가치가 높은 절이다.

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.
