Opodae (오포대) (Mokpo City)

Korea (South) / Chollanam / Mokpo / Mokpo City / Mogwon-dong, 402

Opodae is a Joseon era cannon later used during the Japanese Imperialism period as a signal cannon fired at 12:00pm. The cannon was filled with gunpowder, newspaper and tissue so every time Opodae was fired, Mokpo was showered with pieces of flying paper.
