The Sanskrit Letters on the Stupa for the Great Monk in Sin Reuk Sa Temple, Yeo Ju City, Korea

On the corner of the temple, there were 2 stupas not known who was the owner
Apparently, the style of the stupas was that of Goryeo dynasty. It showed me typical Goryeo stupa style

Sanskrit letters in Goryeo dynasty must be amazing incidents.
It meant that Goryeo dynasty accepted and contacted with Indian society through China.
Indian Sanskrit letters came across the vast Chinese land and finally got to the end of the continent.
The letters of Sanskrit were the evidence of the exchange of the cultures was very active than I thought
