There is a building called Geumdang that enshrines a pagoda inside the temple. This is the only case that enshrines a pagoda inside a building in Korea, and there is a great deal of interest on how this came to be. There is greater interest as the object enshrined is the head of Yukjo Hyeneung, a Zen priest of Tang China. To be exact, Hyeneung's head did not come to Korea, but there are records that his head was transported to Joseon, which adds to the religious intensity. Geumdang was originally built as the shrine for Yukjo, and there were great efforts made by Ssanggyesa Temple to overcome the difficult internal and external conditions during the Joseon Dynasty. When combining this with the story that Yukjo's holy body (Bodhisattva in the human flesh or head) was enshrined at Geumdang, it can be presumed that a symbol for unity was created to overcome the difficult times. In other words, Ssanggyesa Temple looked to overcome the various hardships of the 18th century using symbolism through Choi Chi-won and Hyeneung.
