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 무안군 해제면 산길리 676번지

Jeonnamgwangjutonghapteukbyeol-si. The register lists its founding year as 신라 해광왕.

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 신문왕 대 의상조사가 창건하였다고 전함 기록에 의하면 강산사가 옮기면서 원갑사로 개칭된 것으로 보임 다도해를 눈앞에 두고 있는 임해사찰로서 신안도서의 관문에 위치

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.
