Heungryunsa Temple is a missionary center of the Hwaeomsa Temple. Located in Jukdobong Park (downtown Suncheon), the site was previously used as an archery range.

*History
Heungryunsa Temple is a branch of Hwaeomsa Temple, which is the 19th local temple of Jogye Order. It is said that Heungryunsa Temple was constructed during the reign of King Seonjo of the Joseon dynasty and that the site was used as a place where naval forces practiced archery during the Imjin War in 1592. At the same time, the temple was the first military base of monk-turned-military officers from Hwaeomsa, Songgwangsa, and Seonamsa Temples.

The current building was reconstructed in 1986 by Monk Jongwon, who is still the chief abbot of the temple.

It is a zip line that starts at the top of Geumosan Mountain at an altitude of 849 m, boasting the longest length in Asia. The cast from “House on Wheels” and “I Live Alone” were in awe of the scenery of the tea fields with the Korean archipelago in the background, drawing attention from viewers. When seen in person, the view is much more beautiful than anything the screen could display, not to mention the fast speed of the zip-wire is way more thrilling than what you could imagine; flying towards the blue southern sea at a speed of up to 120 km per hour, you’ll feel as if you left your heart behind you on the platform.
