Hongjuseong Fortress

Train nut and blogger Ferrovia visits Hongjuseong Fortress in Hongseong, Chungcheongnam-do (see also here).

OK, it might not seem like much, but there aren’t many examples of Korean city walls still in existence, and it’s not a bad place to visit on a weekend, especially with Sudeoksa Temple nearby.

    That looks like a nice out-of-the-way place to visit. I will include this in my list and thanks.

    The Hongseong photos are incredible.
    I have searched the web but have found almost nothing to compare to what you have posted.
    Congrats.

    The birthplace of Manhae Han Yongun is also nearby, although unfortunately not really worth a visit unless you’re a complete Manhae fanatic.

    If these stones could speak…
    No doubt an impressive showing.
    Looking forward to more…
