Gongneung, Royal tomb in Samneung complex, Paju, South Korea.
Gongneung presents traditional Korean burial architecture with stone structures and detailed carvings set within landscaped grounds near two additional royal tombs.
The tomb, constructed in 1462, contains the remains of Queen Jangsun, who passed away as crown princess during childbirth before becoming an official queen.
The design of Gongneung follows specific Joseon Dynasty protocols for royal burials, incorporating elements that reflect the status of its occupant.
Visitors can access the site via buses 99, 760, 30, or 31 from Gupabal station, with operating hours from 9:00 AM to 6:30 PM between March and October.
Queen Jangsun and her sister Queen Gonghye, buried in adjacent Sulleung tomb, represent the only siblings to receive queen titles in Joseon Dynasty history.
