화방사(제68호)
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 강진군 군동면 화산리
Jeonnamgwangjutonghapteukbyeol-si. The register lists its founding year as 서기1211.
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
고려 희종 7년 창건 원묘국사가 백련사를 중창하면서 부근의 암자로 초창
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.
