Daeunam, located at the top of Orye Mountain, a branch of Yonggaksan Mountain, one of the eight scenic views of Cheongdo, was founded in 1868 (the 5th year of King Gojong's reign) by Zen Master Buam while practicing meditation at Beomgul Cave. Shin Beomhae rebuilt the statue that was destroyed by fire in 1900, and a statue of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva was moved from Banryongsa Temple in Jain-myeon, Gyeongsan-si and enshrined there. This Avalokitesvara Buddha statue was determined to be a wooden Buddha statue during the Buddhist statue opening that began in December 1994, and clothing relics were discovered, and there was an inscription saying that it was created at Banryongsa Temple in Jain, Gyeongsan in the 11th year of King Sunchi's reign, indicating that it was created in 1654 (the 5th year of King Hyojong's reign). The tomb contains a woodblock copy of the Lotus Sutra and an explanation, making it a valuable research material for the study of Buddhist scriptures and the study of the Korean alphabet. In addition, the view of Mt. Muhan from here is as if the clear water of Cheongdo Stream has spread white silk beneath your feet, and the beautiful mountain peaks are spread out so that you can see the landscape at a glance.
