Seoul Seokchon-dong Gobungun, Ancient burial ground complex in Songpa-gu, South Korea.

The Seokchon-dong site contains seven stone mound tombs and more than thirty stone coffin structures spread across 49,999 square meters of land.

The burial complex dates from the Baekje Kingdom period between 18 BC and 475 AD, when over 300 stone mound tombs filled the surrounding area.

The archaeological site reveals construction techniques and burial practices of ancient Korean kingdoms through its three-story square pedestals and connected stone structures.

Visitors can reach the tombs using subway lines 8 and 9 at Seokchon Station, or by taking bus routes 340, 363, and 3423.

Tomb Number 3, measuring 45.5 meters long and 43.7 meters wide, stands as the largest structure and contains remains linked to King Geunchogo.
