Tongdosa

Located on the north of 양산 Yangsan, 통도사 Tongdosa is one of the three treasure buddhist temples in South Korea, which is famous for Buddha's relic held in the main stupa. Tongdo means spiritual enlightenment, liberating mankind from suffering through being harmonized with truth.
This temple was established during Shilla Kingdom and the mountain in the background is 영취산 Mt. Youngchi that symbolizes Vulture Peak (Mt. Gridhrakuta) in northern India where Buddha preached lotus sutra.

All things happen, but nothing has happened.
