The site of a Goguryeo temple from the Three Kingdoms period is located in Cheongam-ri, Daeseong District, Pyongyang Special City, Democratic People's Republic of Korea. It is located within the Cheongam-ri earthen fortress on the right bank of the Taedong River, and was excavated in 1938. The results showed that it was a one-tower, three-main hall structure with an octagonal building in the center, with three buildings to the east, west, and north, and a central gate to the south. The remains of several more buildings were found on the plateau to the north of the northern building, all of which date back to the Goryeo period. According to the "Samguk Sagi," it is recorded that "Keumgangsa Temple was founded in the seventh month of autumn in the 7th year of King Munja (498)."
