▪Maneosa is a temple located on the 8th ridge of Mt. Maneo, 674 meters above sea level. According to the Samguk Yusa, it was founded by King Suro of the ancient Gaya Kingdom in 1180 during the Goryeo Dynasty. The temple supports the theory of Buddhism’s southern transmission to Korea and has long been considered a sacred site, even used for rain rituals during droughts. Legend says King Suro tried to subdue evil spirits in the region, and with the help of Buddha’s teachings, transformed them. As a result, countless fish and dragons from the East Sea, moved by the Dharma, turned into stones that still remain today. These stones emit clear, bell-like sounds when struck, earning them the name “Jongseok” (bell stones). Mano-sa and its sacred stones are now designated cultural monuments of Gyeongsangnam-do Province.
