Beomeosa



Beom (범; 梵; nirvana) - eo (어; 魚; fish) - sa (사; 寺; temple). Thus the name of the temple came to be "Heavenly Fish." 






It is also claimed that the fish came from Nirvana, the Buddhist state of non-suffering.  






Beomeosa, formerly spelled as Pomosa, (Temple of the Nirvana Fish) is a head temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism in Busan, South Korea. 






Built on the slopes of Geumjeongsan, it is one of the country's most known urban temples.
