When I passed through a last gate to the temple, there were strange looking small traditional building. Those small buildings made me curious.
Even though I have looked over more than 100 temples in Korea, it was the first time for me to look at those buildings.
As I got to there closer, the introductory standing board made me surprise.
The purpose of those buildings was cleaning bodies when people die.
As you know, Buddhists have been cremating when people die.
Before cremating, they had been cleaning bodies in this building.
The left building was for cleaning woman’s body. It’s name was “Sae Wol Dang” meaning the house of cleaning moon. They used the moon as a metaphor for woman’s body.
This buildings had been made in 19 century according to the board.
Near the last gate and at the end of the road, there was a large rock on which the names were carved.
Maybe they tried their names to be remembered forever.
Why did they carve their names near the building of cleaning bodies ?
People whose names were carved in the rock were dead with the hope of not forgotten.
But nobody remember their name now.
I was standing near those architectures in a while thinking the meaning of human life.
Sharp and clean view for home loan to live in privacy..

Capturing nature in all its glory of own creativity. Travel photography is a genre of photography that may involve the documentation of an area's landscape, people, cultures, customs and history. You have a great theoretical knowledge and experience about to make good photography as well as creative perspectives. Your creative perspectives really impressed me. Because without creative perspectives it is not possible to capture this types of glamorous photography.

a memorable trip, especially
about names of names engraved on stone.
and I am very interested in your sentence
"I was standing near those architectures in a while thinking the meaning of human life."
I am sorry @slowwalker, have you found the essence of this life, in fact we are made god in this earth to worship him.
life in this world is very very short,
average between 70 and 100 years.
according to the teachings in the Islamic religion,
our life is now the second stage,
the first is life in the womb.
the third after we die or the grave, our lives remain.
and the fourth after the apocalypse,
will be in the resurrection of all mankind who ever lived on earth.
and the fifth is eternal life in heaven or hell.
it is enough death to be a very good advice for us.
I hope no one is offended by this comment, thanks.

Songgwangsa is very beautiful place and obviously as all historical area well looked after, I was impressed with the entrance gate, if not a car it is difficult to imagine how huge it is.
The gate "il joo moon” has very detailed fine hand worked wood figures, it is master piece and luckily survive until nowadays.
Looking at you photo with these buildings for the last wash of body it is a sad but necessary step, to give the last respect, the stone with names really gave the people eternity but human life is short so the names will be forgotten with time. I can imagine that this stone makes people to stop and think about the life and us human how fragile our life is and we are this moment there but the next gone :)

It seems there might be a bit of an oddity or something so there is an unexpected building in Songgwangsa Temple Of Suncheon.
From the whole temple is seen if there is a very high historical cultural value.

Hey there Mr. Walker! How have you been? I'm sure well. Looking at such monuments paying respect to the diseased puts me in that place of pondering human life also. I was actually wandering through the cemetery in Buenos Aires last week. I saw graves hundreds of years old including those of famous people, war heroes, and x-presidents. The cemetery was immaculate and filled with incredible statues and moments. This is often something that crosses cultures from the "End of the World" Patagonia, to S. Korea, and beyond. Another great post of a country dear to me, South Korea.
Wishing you the very best and always appreciative of your support towards my blog.

Have a great day! -Dan
