kcisa - HWASEONG HAENGGUNG - Korean Traditional Palace

Suwon Hwaseong Haenggung Palace is considered one of the most beautiful palaces in Korea, similar to Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul.

It has the most outstanding scale and formality among the constructed palaces built in Korea, and it is a historical heritage where you can feel the dreams and filial piety of King Jeongjo.

The Suwon Hwaseong Fortress and the Hwaseong Haenggung Palace were destroyed by Japan from 1911 to 1920s. However, the appearance of the building, materials and construction methods used were detailed in the "Uigwe of Hwaseong Fortress" book, so not only Suwon Hwaseong Fortress but also Hwaseong Haenggung Palace could be restored. The restored heritage originally cannot be registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but Suwon Hwaseong Fortress, which has been verified and restored based on historical records, could be registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Hwaseong Haenggung Palace was then designated as Historic Site No. 478.
