The south gate of Hwaseong fortress

Paldalmun, which is designated as Treasure No. 402, is the south gate of the Hwaseong Fortress. The name means “open roads in every direction.” The stone rainbow-style gate was wide enough for a king's visits accompanied by horses and sedan chairs, and above the gate a second-story structure was built.
A low fence was erected around the upper story of the castle gate, a semi-circular castle called Ongseong was built outside the gate, and Jeokdae, a gate guard platform, was constructed to repel enemies.
