Introduction to Sunghyeon Seowonji
Sunghyeonseowonji is the site of Sunghyangseowon Confucian Academy, where eight people, including Jeong Gwang-pil, were buried in the late Joseon Dynasty.
It is believed to have been built in the late 16th century, and was given the name [Sunghyeon] in 1592 as a Saekseowon recognized by the country.
It was destroyed during the Japanese Invasion of Korea during the Japanese invasions of Korea, but was restored in 1609 (1st year of Gwanghaegun's reign) and later served as a place to worship Kim Jang-saeng, Song Jun-gil, and Song Si-yeol.
However, Sunghyeon Seowonji was closed in 1871 (the 8th year of King Gojong's reign) due to Heungseon Daewongun's order to abolish seowons, and has not been restored since.
Only a monument erected in 1667 (the 8th year of King Hyeonjong's reign) remained, but Daejeon Metropolitan City designated it as a Daejeon Metropolitan City monument in 1992 so that more citizens could see and learn about such historical and educationally valuable relics, and restoration began in 1994 to create a shrine, You can now see the old appearance of Sunghyeon Seowonji, which is fully equipped with an auditorium, east hall, and study hall.

Introduction to Jakwangsa Temple (Daejeon)
Hakha-dong (鶴下洞) has its origins as a neighborhood where cranes (鶴) came down, and a place where immortals or Taoists came down and stayed.

To the left stands the monument to the temple shrine.
Seongjeon (星田) means a field of stars or a place where you can observe the stars well. This area is called Byeolbat, Byeolbong, and Seongjeon. It is said that a monument was erected here to announce that it was a historical place where teacher Song Si-yeol built a school and trained his students.
Next to it, there is a pond with carp and lotus flowers that welcomes and listens to everyone leisurely.
If you sit on a white wooden chair in front of the pond and look carefully, you will see a bell pavilion on the left, a Buddhist temple on the right, and a well, shower room, and toilet behind the bamboo fence in front.
After feeding the carp in the pond, stepping on the stone steps, and climbing the stairs to the second floor of the bell pavilion, you will see the four objects of the temple, namely the beopgo, cloud plate, temple bell, and wooden fish, placed in that order.
