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

440년(눌지왕24) 고구려 아도화상이 宗林庵(종림암)으로 창건 이후 어느 때인가 죽림사로 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.
