Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty, Royal mausoleums in Gyeonggi, South Korea.
The Royal Tombs complex contains forty burial sites for monarchs and queens, spread across multiple locations with stone statues and ceremonial paths.
The construction of these tombs started in 1392 during the Joseon Dynasty, following specific architectural guidelines from Confucian texts and Korean geomancy.
The tombs feature three distinct sections: Jeongjagak, a transitional area, and sacred burial mounds, reflecting Korean burial traditions and royal status.
Visitors can access multiple tomb clusters through guided tours, with Donggureung containing the remains of seven kings and ten queens.
The tomb arrangements follow precise geographical and spiritual principles, maintaining specific distances between graves and from the capital city.
