Beomnyunsa Temple, located at the foot of Munsusan Mountain in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, consists of Geungnakbojeon Hall, Gwaneumjeon Hall, Samseonggak Hall, Beomjonggak Hall, and other buildings. The sizable 430-square-meter Daeungjeon Hall was built in an open form of the Chinese character "亞" ("ah") in a Southern Buddhist style. The hall, made of indigenous red pine tree from Baekdusan Mountain, contains a 53-ton stone Buddha Statue (three times bigger in size than the statue in Seokguram Grotto) and a 33-ton stone Munsu Bohyeon Buddhist Saint Statue. On the left wall are 104 Sinjungnim (guardians of Buddhist law) as well as a Dongjin Boan Buddhist Saint Statue. There are also 1,250 Buddhist saint statues, symbolizing the devotion of Buddhist followers.
