Gyeongju was an open museum. The relics were scattered in Gyeongju widely.
I heard there were 3 Buddha statues of Shilla dynasty near Namsan mountain. It was said that these 3 statues had been abandon for more than 1000 years under the ground.
Recently these statues were brought near Namsan in Gyeongju.
When I got to there, there was a small Buddhist temple.
It was very calm and quiet.
I looked around this temple slowly.
The pagoda was impressive.
The pagoda seemed to be assembled with various part of scattered pagodas.
The 3 Buddha statues were near the temple along the road to the entrance of mountain.
The building was built to protect Statues from the rain and the snow.
It was written in the pamphlet the central statue was the most well sculpted, but in my opinion the left was better than that.
Below is the central Buddha.
The face of Statue was broken.
Below is the left Buddha
Left Buddha looked more delicate than others in my eyes.
Below is the right Buddha
It was interesting to look at people bowing to Buddha Statues.
They seemed to believe these Buddha statue had a mysterious power.
People bowing to the Statues were very sincere.
Thank you for reading.
It is quite interesting that they uncovered these three statues and Buddhists now can pay their homage to it @slowwalker The statues are very old indeed showing the ravages of time but still reflects its power for the devotees.
Wou. That's interesting travel story ;) Hope you are going take a look at my traveling experience @kamile

경주 국립 박물관은 신라 시대의 수많은 유물과 문화 유물을 보유하고있어 방문객과 거주자 모두에게 사랑 받고 있습니다 (기원전 57 년 - 서기 935 년). 박물관은 최근 보수 공사를 마쳤으며 갤러리와 전시장은 새로운 모습을 보였습니다. 방문객을위한 시설 개선 외에도.
this is a very good story in the days of the kingdom,
경주 남산은 꼭 가봐야할 곳이죠. 불자라면 더더욱~! ^^; 경주 남산 일원이 유네스코 세계문화유산에 등록되어있는 것도 알려주셨으면 좋겠어요.

Geyeongju is a famous museum, I've heard the museum, but I not know how the place, thank you for sharing history
Really extraordinary, the teachings that Master Budha left, the 4 Noble Truths are great. Yesterday I just wrote a post about Bhuda in spanishs
Excellent.........pic!
Agree too!
3 boddho statues Looking Very Nice Thank you for giving us the opportunity to see.@slowwalker
The history that many people have forgotten, this important lesson especially for me to always remember history.
This is the science for me, the three Buddhist statues embedded above 1000 years still look strong and stand firm, a lot of historic things I get from all your posts @slowwalker, hope you continue to show and share the historic things of your country.
Slowwalker님
오늘 찾아 주셔서 깜짝 놀랬습니다
감동 감격이였답니다~^^
지금은 가게 일하는 시간이라

Hola @slowwalker
Demasiado bueno el tour que has llevado a cabo y totalmente lleno de conocimientos.
Corea del Sur al igual que todos los países asiáticos rinden un enorme respeto hacía sus Dioses y Deidades.
Fijáte que grande es el respeto que a pesar de tener roto el rostro el Buda central de igual forma se le adora.
Saludos y de verdad muchas gracias por lo que transmites en tu artículo.
Relics of the past that should be conserved, travel in passing the time until now, the record becomes a means of a history of civilization of a nation. A great nation is a nation that values its history.
This reminded me of my visit to china where I visited Dia temple where there are beautiful historical statues, it was really an interesting experience visiting such historical places. Thanks for sharing that of Korea with us @slowwalker. what a beautiful photography and an amazing history story go with it. Hopefully someday I will visit Korea and see this beautiful places myself. I really do love history and that is what I blog about.
Your posts are something that I look forward to daily. Everytime I log in, I just pray that you should have posted something. The Pagoda's and the statues look so charming and full of history
wonderful photography guys.
While the Buddha statue may have mysterious powers, I would probably bow to them out of respect for their meaning.
Religion is a very powerful thing.
really great post about history
realy....beautiful....pic
very? long time? and a history for the people? of korea?and has? its own meaning for? the people of korea? success make??????
In Pakistan lot of Buddah things exists , do visit
Is it a museum or temple?Are the most of korean people follow the buddhism.?I think these statues are very strong example of architectural work done by Shilla dynasty.you have mentioned that when you reached to Budhha temple you became quiet and calm,so is the case with mine .When i go to any temple i become calm and sit there in search of some drops of spirituality.
The place where this museum is situated is very charming.I think this a better place to get relax and get refresh quickly.
This old statues symbolise the development of civilisation millions years ago.People bowing down to statues with folding hands call namaskar pose in our India.Namaskar shows the respect and a sign of humbleness.It also urges blessings from god.
Nice photography and excellent post.
Thank you

자연과 잘 어울어진 고유 문화유산의 아름다움과 소중함을 느끼게 됩니다
저도 왼쪽 불상이 더 섬세하고 아름답게 느껴집니다~^^
