Maneosa Temple, perched on Maneosan Mountain in Miryang, dates back to 46 A.D. and is steeped in tradition and numerous legends. During the Silla dynasty, it served as a ceremonial site for the king to conduct Buddhist rites. Notably, beneath the Mireukjeon Hall lies the Maneoseok Rocks, reputed to be fish that transformed into stones. Remarkably, these stones emit a clear, bell-like sound when struck, earning them the nickname Jongseok (Bell stone). The temple also features a three-story stone pagoda, standing 3.7 meters tall, which has been designated as a Treasure.
