It became evening. In every Buddhist temple, the ceremony use to be performed at the evening time.
The monks are striking the bell, the drum and the iron plates instrument to spread the teachings from Buddha to all over the lives in the world.

There were two building for this ceremony under Daewung-Jeon.
One for the bell, and the other of the drum, the iron plate in the form of the cloud and the wooden drum in the shape of the fish.

At first a monk stroke the fish wooden drum and beat the iron plate, they said that beating the main drum could not be performed due to the hot weather.

After the striking the iron plate, one monk began to strike the bell in other building located in the other side of the building

People were walking around the pagoda while beating bell and the instruments.

I was sitting under the tree and listening the sounds. It was quite good.


In every morning and evening, the monks are performing this ceremony.

Hi my friend slowwalker! Sounds have a great influence on us! The sound of this drum creates a balance ... I now live by the sea and fall asleep listening to his song!
