Jijidaebi was erected by the people of this area in 1807, in recognition of the deep filial piety and devotion of King Jeongjo, the 22nd king of the Joseon Dynasty.

Paldalmun Dongjong, was originally cast in Gaeseong in 1080 (34th year of King Munjong's reign) and was re-founded in 1687 (13th year of King Sukjong's reign) by Dohwaseung, the chief priest of Manuisa Temple for use in Buddhist ceremonies.

Samsjon Seokbul is presumed to have been built during the Goryeo Dynasty.

The Shinjung Taenghwa (Buddhist wall painting) is commonly found in Korean temples. There are twelve to twenty figures depicted in the Shinjung Taenghwa. The central image is of Tongjin Posal, who is easily identified by his elaborate headdress which resembles a fan of feathers.
There are different interpretations of the Shinjung Taenghwa. One is that the figures surrounding Tongjin represent beings who are well-acquainted with the Three Refuges: the Buddha, his teaching (Dharma), and the Buddhist community (Sangha). Another is that the figures are historical personages such as Confucius, or lesser deities like the Kitchen God. The four, or sometimes five, figures at the base of the painting or to the sides of Tongjin Posal, are clearly guardians. One guardian often carries a rolled-up scroll, representing the doctrine which he protects. Depending on the size of the temple, and consequently on the number of halls or shrines therein, the Shinjung Taenghwa is found in any one of many buildings, but most often on the right wall of the Main Hall.
