Dorisa Temple, established in 417 as the earliest temple of the Silla dynasty on Naengsan Mountain, is steeped in legend. It's said that even in winter, the peach and plum blossoms here were in full bloom, marking the site as auspicious for temple construction. Hence, the temple's name, Dorisa, derives from combining syllables of “peach” (do) and “plum” (ri). The temple is home to notable cultural assets such as Geungnakjeon Hall, a unique Stone Pagoda constructed from bricks, and the Wooden Seated Amitabha Buddha, crafted from juniper wood. For those seeking spiritual respite, the temple offers templestay programs in three distinct categories: one-day, experience, and relaxation.
