韓国の慶州に現在も遺跡が残る皇龍寺は、新羅最大の寺院であり、rn高さ225尺という巨大な九層塔が建立されたことでも有名である。rn『三国史記』などの記録によれば、その創建は真興王14（553）年rnとされ、九層塔の完成は善徳王14（645）とされる。%Hwang Ryong-sa was the most important national temple in Silla. This paper is about the site plan of HwangRyong-sa temple at the early stage. A change in site plan was inferred from a research excavation result, and a positional change of HwangRyong-sa in Silla was considered from performing temple of Buddhist rites and the change of temple name of HwangRyong-sa. And through these consideration results, a change of HwangRyong-sa at early stage was clarified. The results are as follows.rnThe first buildings of HwangRyong-sa were the eastern main hall and a few buildings at the site of western main hall (Fig.5). With these buildings, form of a temple of HwangRyong-sa was tentatively shaped in around 566. But it was not the completion of HwangRyong-sa as the most important national temple of Silla.rnThe second site plan of HwangRyong-sa was completed when the large central main hall was built in 584. There is three main halls in the second site plan, and the site was divided into three areas by the western and eastern cloisters (Fig.6). By this time HwangRyong-sa became the most important temple of Silla, and the national Buddhist rites was performed in HwangRyong-sa.rnLarge nine-storied pagoda was completed in 645 and the western and eastern cloisters were removed. As a result the third site plan was completed as one pagoda and three main halls pattern (Fig.7).
