Strawberry Picking & Haeinsa Temple

Haeinsa Temple was founded by two monks called Suneung and Ijung during 802. The name is derived from the expression Haeinsammae meaning a true enlightened world of Buddha in an undefiled mind. It is one of the sacred Jewels Temples and also one of the three biggest in Korea. Haeinsa Temple’s Janggyeongpanjeon Hall is an official archive built to safely store the 13th-century Printing Woodblocks of the Tripitaka Koreana and Miscellaneous Buddhist Scriptures, a UNESCO Memory of the World Register item. The hall is believed to have been built in the 15th century, which makes it all the more amazing for its scientifically advanced construction. The hall was built in such a way as to perfectly preserve and protect the fragile woodblocks from changes in the temperature and humidity levels.
