  • Introduction
  • Located in Seongsan-myeon, Gangneung, this pagoda was designated as a Gangwon-do Cultural Heritage on June 10, 1992. It is a Goryeo Dynasty granite pagoda featuring a five-story square body on a double-tier base. Although some corners of the roof stones (okgae) are damaged, the original form is relatively well-preserved. The foundation stone (jidaeseok) is made of several long stones, and the lower base is carved from a single stone. Each side of the lower middle stone features three "ansang" (elephant-eye shaped) carvings. The upper base supports the first-story body with two-tier supports.
  • Tourist Guide
  • Visitors to Gwaneum-ri can find this 3.3-meter-tall pagoda at an old temple site. As the original name of the temple is not confirmed, it is named after the village. However, based on records mentioning "Anguksa," the area is presumed to be the site of Anguksa Temple. Remaining embankments, foundation stones, and long stones clearly indicate that this was once a temple site. It offers a chance to travel back in time with a pagoda that has stood in the same spot for centuries.
  • Tourist Tips
  • Reaching the pagoda is not easy. Due to the unmanaged surroundings and unclear location, it is especially difficult to find in summer when the grass is thick. It is located behind a small temple building that looks like a private house. Since it sits in the middle of a forest, it is best to ask local residents for directions as they know the exact location.
