Why go
Baengnyeonsa (Gangjin) is a Korean Buddhist temple in Gangjin, with traditional Korean Buddhist architecture set in a forested mountain setting. The temple has a long history within Korean Buddhism's mountain hermitage tradition. For travelers based in Gangjin or driving the southwestern Korean coast and wanting a quiet Buddhist anchor, Baengnyeonsa is one of the cleaner small single picks. Pair with broader Gangjin heritage circuits.
