El templo Hwagyesa, bajo la orden Chogye del budismo coreano, se ubica en los pies del monte Samgaksan en Suyu-dong, Gangbuk-gu, Seúl. Aunque se localiza en la capital, el encantador paisaje de su alrededor crea un escenario que permite escaparse de la vida urbana. Construido en el año 1522 (el 17º año del reinado del rey Jungjong de la dinastía Joseon) por el monje Shinwol, fue destruido por un incendio el 1618. En 1866 (el 3º año del reinado del rey Gojong), se reconstruyó con soporte financiero de la corte real. El templo fue construido con un estilo arquitectónico antiguo, junto con Daeungjeon, el santuario principal (Bien Cultural Tangible), el santuario Myeongbujeon, el pabellón Samseonggak, el santuario Cheonbulobaekseongjeon, el pabellón de la campana del templo, la torre Bohwaru y la torre Hakseoru.

Una leyenda dice que el manantial fue formado con los picotazos de los cuervos en las rocas.
