A thatched inn and a painter's story

Address

Sudeoksa-an-gil, Deoksan-myeon, Yesan

A low thatched inn beside the path up to Sudeoksa. The painter Lee Ung-no stayed and worked here for a time, and it is preserved as a provincial monument. Abstract figures he carved into the rocks in the yard are still there. Ten minutes before or after the hike changes how the temple approach feels.
