Girimsa is a Buddhist temple located on the slopes of Mount Hamwolsan in Gyeongju city, the North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. It is a subsidiary temple of Bulguksa, the head temple of the 11th branch of Jogye Order.〔http://eng.koreatemple.net/travel/view_temple.asp?temple_id=44〕〔Martin Robinson, Andrew Bender, Rob Whyte, (2004) (''Korea'' ) Lonely PlanetPage 183 ISBN 1-74059-449-5〕 The temple was first established by Monk Gwangyu from India as Imjeongsa (林井寺) in 643, the period of Queen Seondeok's reign (r. 632-647 AD) during the Silla kingdom period (57 BC–935 AD).〔(in Korean) (기림사 祈林寺 (Girimsa) ) Nate / Encyclopedia of Korean Culture. Retrieved on July 31, 2009.〕 After monk Wonhyo rebuilt the temple, the temple's name was changed to Girimsa which name derives from "Girim jeongsa" (祈園精舍), meaning the forest where Buddha resided. Once it was the biggest temple in the Gyeongju area until the mid-1940s, even having Bulguksa as its branch temple. However, the situation has been changed - while Bulguksa has thrived onwards, Girimsa has not due to the accessibility.〔(''Extra programs'' ) International Symposium on New Frontier of Advanced Si-Based Ceramics and Composites〕 Yet, the temple consists of 16 buildings containing Daejeokgwangjeon hall (大寂光殿), Yaksajeon hall and Eungjinjeon hall and others. In addition to the buildings, Girimasa has relics such as Moktap Site, Three-Story Stone Pagoda and the lacquered Seated Mercy Bodhisattva of Girimsa Temple (Treasure No. 415).〔〔(''Major tour sites'' ) Kyeongbuk Tourism Development Corporation〕 ==Gallery== File:Yaksajeon at Girimsa-Gyeongju-Korea-02.jpg|Yaksajeon hall File:Jinnamnu at Girimsa-Gyeongju-Korea-01.jpg|Jinnamnu File:Samseonggak at Girimsa-Gyeongju-Korea-03.jpg|Samseonggak File:Samcheonbuljeon at Girimsa-Gyeongju-Korea-02.jpg|Samcheonbuljeon 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Girimsa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
