Busanjinseong, Military fortress in Beomil-dong, South Korea.

The stone fortification extends along strategic positions of Busan, featuring defensive walls designed according to traditional Korean military architecture principles.

Built in 1593 during the Japanese invasions, Busanjinseong served as a command post for Japanese forces under the leadership of Mōri Terumoto.

The fortress represents the military engineering methods of the late Joseon period, combining both Korean and Japanese architectural elements in its construction.

Visitors can access the fortress through public transportation, with several bus stops and subway stations located within walking distance of the entrance.

The fortress walls incorporate specific defensive features, including archer positions and guard posts that reflect 16th-century military technology.
