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 진도군 의신면 사천리
Jeonnamgwangjutonghapteukbyeol-si. The register lists its founding year as 서기858.
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 46대 문성왕 19년 도선국사 초창 고려신종 원년 정담선사가 정수암,강종원년 응천선사가 상성암 건립하고 6차의 중수를 거쳐 현재에 이르고 있음
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.
