Goguryeo tombs, Archaeological tombs in South Pyongan Province and South Hwanghae Province, North Korea
The complex contains 63 individual tombs constructed with stone chambers, earth mounds, and limestone blocks forming pyramidal and rectangular structures.
The Goguryeo kingdom constructed these burial monuments between the 1st century BCE and 7th century CE as final resting places for rulers and nobles.
The inner chambers feature detailed murals depicting daily activities, ceremonies, architecture, and hunting scenes using bright colors and flowing brushwork techniques.
Visitors can access the tombs through horizontal passageways leading to main chambers, with some structures containing additional rooms separated by stone columns.
The engineering methods included mixing earth with lime and pebbles, plus adding charcoal layers to create waterproof protection for the interior artwork.
