The burial plot extends across 16 hectares of land and contains ceremonial structures, stone guardian figures, and protective stone walls around the central mound.

Queen Jeongsun, wife of King Danjong who ruled Joseon Dynasty in the 15th century, received this final resting place in 1698.

The tomb follows traditional Korean burial architecture with specific elements including Gokjang walls, Bongbun burial area, and ceremonial pathways for visitors.

The site maintains restricted access regulations, requiring visitors to obtain permission through local administrative channels before entering the grounds.

Stone sculptures of tigers and sheep serve as spiritual guardians, positioned according to specific geometric patterns around the burial mound.
