Yeonsangunmyo, Royal burial plot in Dobong District, South Korea
The Yeonsangunmyo tomb features stone statues, ceremonial gates, and ritual paths leading to the king's final resting place in Dobong District.
Constructed in 1506, this burial site holds the remains of King Yeonsangun, the tenth ruler of the Joseon Dynasty who governed from 1494 to 1506.
The tomb layout reflects Korean Confucian principles through its hierarchical spatial design and traditional stone structures used in royal funerary practices.
The burial site maintains regular visiting hours and can be reached via public transportation from central Seoul through the subway lines serving Dobong District.
This royal tomb represents the only burial site of a Joseon Dynasty king who was formally deposed from the throne due to his controversial reign.
