UNESCO Treasures in Korea

World Heritage

The majest ic entrance to Bulguksa Temple

UNESCO has recognized the unique value and the distinct

character of Korean culture by placing a number of

Korean treasures on the World Heritage List.

In 1995, UNESCO added to its list Bulguksa Temple and

Seokguram Grotto, both in Gyeongju, Gyeongsangbuk-do

(North Gyeongsang Province); Haeinsa Temple

Janggyeongpanjeon, the depositories for the Tripitaka

Koreana Woodblocks in Gyeongsangnam-do (SouthGyeongsang Province); and Jongmyo, the Royal Ancestral Shrine in Seoul.

Changdeokgung Palace in Seoul and Hwaseong Fortress in Suwon were ente red on the list in

1997. In 2000, two additional Korean treasures were added to the list: the dolmen sites of

Gochang, Hwasun and Ganghwado (Ganghwa Province); and the Gyeongju Historic Area, the

capital of the ancient Silla Kingdom (57 B.C. - A.D. 935), where innumerable cultural treasures

and historic sites are carefully preserved. In 2007, UNESCO named Korea's volcanic island Jejudo

and its lava tubes a natural property of outstanding beauty which bears testimony to the history

of our planet.

The main rotunda of the Seokguram Grotto

Bulguksa Temple and Seokguram Grotto were

constructed over a 23-year period beginning in 751

during the S illa Kingdom by Chief Minister Kim Dae-seong

(701-774). It is recorded that Kim was reincarnated as

the son of a chief minister because he had been the

virtuous son of a poor widow in a previous life.

He himself became chief minister and resigned in 750 to

supervise the construction of Bulguksa to honor the parents of his present life and Seokguram to

honor the parents of his previous life. Bulguksa was for public worship and Seokguram for the

private worship of the king.

Tripitaka Koreana woodblocks

Built on a series of stone terraces, Bulguksa blends intowhat appears as an organic whole with the rocky terrain

of the wooded foothills of Tohamsan. The temple houses

the Seokgatap (Pagoda of the Historic Buddha) and

Dabotap (Pagoda of Many Treasures) as we ll as

Cheongungyo (Blue Cloud Bridge), Baegungyo (White

Cloud Bridge) and Chilbogyo (Bridge of Seven Treasures)

― the three staircases are called bridges because

symbolically they lead from the secular world to t he spiritual one of Buddha.

here are many other outstanding treasures within and outside the temple grounds, including gilt

bronze Buddha statues.

Painting

The figures on the walls of Muyongchong [the Tomb of the Dancers] from the Goguryeo Kingdom (37 B.C. -

A.D. 668)

Although Korean painters showed a certain level of accumulated skills from the t ime of the Three

Kingdoms, most paint ings have been lost because they were drawn on paper. As a result, it is

only possible to appreciate a limited number of paint ings from this age such as the tomb murals.

In addition to the Goguryeo mural paint ings, the landscape tiles of Baekje and the Paint ing of the

Flying Horse of Silla combine to attest to the characteristics and quality of paintings during the

hree Kingdoms. These works display energetic and bold lines and well-organized composition,

distinctive features of this age.

Geumgangsan-do: Panoramic View of Geumgang Mountain by Joseon

Dynasty artist Jeong Seon (1676~1759)

Only a handful of paintings of Unified Silla remain. St ill, the painted

illustrations of the teachings of the Avatamsaka Sut ra (the Flower

Garland Sutra) bears witness to the refinement of the paintings of

this age. Exquisite and lively lines characterize these illustrations.

Both decorative and Buddhist paint ings reached a peak during the

Goryeo Dynasty. During this age, a great variety of paint ings were

produced.

he works from this period that have survived are mainly Buddhist

paintings of the 13-14th century. The main features of these works

include e legant postures, delicate and exquisite folds of the

clothing and refined hues, indicative of the thriving Buddhism of this epoch.

he greatest advancement in Korean paint ing took place during the Joseon Dynasty. Trained

professional painters and literati artists played a leading role in the development of painting. In

particular, economic growth, political stability and ideological development in the 18th century

served as catalysts for the predominance of uniquely Korean paint ing styles. This trend can be

seen in landscape paintings of actual Korean scenes and genre paintings with secular themes.
