Hyangiram Hermitage 향일암

Aside from Odongdo Island, Hyangiram Hermitage, located in the south of Yeosu, is probably Yeosu's most popular tourist attraction. This hermitage (Cultural Property Material No. 40) is one of four Buddhist hermitages in Korea where the faithful come to pray. Hyangiram was a base camp for Buddhist monks who helped Admiral Lee Sun-shin fight the war during the Japanese invasion.
Perched high above the crashing waves of the South Sea, the temple offers some of the best sunrises and sunsets in all of Korea. The hermitage was reconstructed after a fire in 2009.
