  • Introduction
  • The Bangnae-ri Three-story Stone Pagoda is a 3.5-meter-tall structure located in Yeongok-myeon, Gangneung. Designated as a Gangwon-do Cultural Heritage on December 16, 1971, it features a single-tier base and a three-story body. The first-story body is decorated with carvings of the "Buddhas of the Four Directions." While the site is said to be the former location of Mujinsa Temple founded by Monk Jajang of Silla, the temple has since disappeared due to village development.
  • Tourist Guide
  • The pagoda stands on a small rock bed, with the base not clearly defined. Each story's body and roof stone are carved from a single piece of stone. A notable feature is the sharp reduction in the size of the body stones from the second story upward. Although legends say Monk Jajang left this pagoda here while moving Buddhist statues to Woljeongsa Temple, its architectural style suggests it was built in the early Goryeo Dynasty.
  • Tourist Tips
  • If traveling by highway, exit at the North Gangneung (Bukgangneung) Interchange. Follow National Road 7 toward Goseong (North) for about 3km until you reach the Yeongok-myeon Office. From there, take Road 6 toward the inland area to find the site.
