Samseonggung ("Palace of the Three Sages") is a Korean shamanic shrine along the slopes of Jiri Mountain, Hadong County in South Gyeongsang Province[1] that was created for paying homage to the three mythical founders (father-son-grandson trio) of Korea: Samseonggung shrine was established in 1983[3] by Ham Pil, a Taoist priest claiming his family based Taoist lineage occupied this part of Jiri Mountain for the last 400 years.

Samseonggung was constructed on this site based in the spirit of Hongik Ingan (Korean: 홍익인간; Hanja: 洪益人間; lit.

Erected to ward off evil spirits, there are many stone and wood poles called Jangseung (장승, like totem poles) and Bangsadap (방사답/ Hanja: 防邪塔, "Guardian Mounds", i.e. mound which repels or wards evil) - sometimes called doldap (돌답), conical stone pyramids throughout the grounds.

Cheongung (천궁/ Hanja: 天宮, "Heavenly Celestial Palace"), or the main Shrine Hall of the Three Sages, enshrines paintings and altars for the honoring of the three mythical founders of Korea.

The festival, having been held by Koreans throughout their history of more than 2000 years, is described as "colorful events filled with joy, friendship, drink and dance".
