Busosanseong, Mountain fortress in Buyeo, South Korea

The stone and mud fortress stands on Mount Buso, featuring defensive walls, gates, and multiple pavilions overlooking the surrounding Buyeo region.

Constructed in 538 CE during the Baekje Kingdom period, the fortress served as a strategic military installation to protect Sabi, the capital city.

Within the fortress grounds, Samchungsa Shrine honors three Baekje court officials: Seongchung, Heungsu, and Gyebaek, who defended the kingdom.

Visitors can access various architectural structures including Baekhwajeong Pavilion, Sajaru Pavilion, Banwollu Pavilion, and Yeongillu Pavilion throughout the site.

At Nakhwaam Rock within the fortress, 3,000 court women jumped to their death when the Baekje Kingdom fell to enemy forces.
