Halkimsa Temple is a traditional temple affiliated with the Seon Academy, said to have been first built beneath Hakbawi Rock on Seohaksan Mountain. Over time, the temple fell into ruin. In April 1965, it was rebuilt and named Anyangsa Temple.
Subsequently, in 1985, the Daeungjeon Hall and monks' quarters were reconstructed, and the temple's name was changed to Halkimsa Temple.

The Daeungjeon Hall at Hakrimsa stands on round foundation stones with rounded pillars and features a hip-and-gable roof in the dapo style.
Inside, the principal Buddha statue is a seated Shakyamuni Buddha, flanked by seated Jijang Bosal (Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva) and Gwanseum Bosal (Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva). Behind the Buddha statues, a rear Buddha painting is centered, flanked by paintings of Dokseong (the Mountain Spirit), Sanshin (the Mountain Spirit), and Chilseong (the Seven Stars).
In front of the Daeungjeon Hall stand a stone lantern and an octagonal seven-story pagoda.

The temple's collection includes the Yeonseo Hakrimsa Shinjung Painting, a colored painting depicting the guardians of the Dharma and the temple grounds. It features various deities entrusted with protecting the Buddhist teachings and is designated as a Tangible Cultural Heritage of Sejong Special Self-Governing City.

Though a small temple, it is a place of practice for nuns, and the delicate touch of the nuns can be felt throughout. Come spring, the entire temple transforms into a beautiful flower garden. Azaleas and cornelian cherries bloom in succession, and when the red azaleas burst into bloom, one is overcome with the feeling that the Buddha's teachings are spreading throughout the universe through these fully bloomed flowers.
