The Beauty of the One Pillar Gate of Cheoneun-sa Temple in Jiri-san Mountain

Jiri-san mountain is said as a mother of mountains in Korea.
It is not high but wide. So it embraces lots of people, villages, architectures and histories including Buddhist temples.
The temple Cheoneun-sa was one of those Buddhist temples holding a place near Jiri-san mountain.

After looking around Whaeom-sa temple, I headed for Cheoneun-sa temple.
It was not far from Whaeom-sa temple.
It was a first visit to Cheoneun-sa in this time for me.
Cheoneun-sa was not a large temple, so it was the next time visit place.

When I entered into Cheoneun-sa, I was stroked by the beauty of the one pillar gate.

The one pillar gate of Cheoneun-sa was the one of the most beautiful among what I have seen until now.

It was the beauty of the moderation, the temptation and simplicity.
The eavesdrop of the gate was so splendid though, but not excessive.

The harmony and the balance was the key of the beauty.
The harmony with its surroundings was perfect.
