Yuksinsa Shrine is a revered site dedicated to honoring the Sayuksin. Established during the Joseon dynasty, it stands well-preserved to this day. "Sayuksin" translates to "six dead ministers," referencing the six loyal subjects who, in 1453, attempted to restore King Danjong of the Joseon dynasty but were ultimately captured and executed. The shrine's entrance, marked by the Chungjeolmun Gate, is flanked by long rows of crape myrtle trees. These trees create a stunning visual spectacle when their red flowers are in bloom.
