About 380 km drive from Jisepo, between the 5 and 6
hours, you can find the Hwaseong
Fortress and Hwaseong Haenggung. The original structure is built from January
1794 – September 1796 by King Jeongjo. During the Korean War a lot of the
structures have been destroyed and the restoration started in 1975.
It is possible to walk around the town on the wall and this will take
at least 2 hours. We enjoyed the views and took some closer looks at special
buildings which we haven’t seen at other Fortress, so it took us 3 hours. A
nice place too start the walk is close to Paldamun. You start with a steep
walk .After de Fortress, walk from Paldamun to the Palace. The combined ticket
costs KRW 3500.
To find the place, we put in the following telephone
number: 031-251-4435.
The hotel was at walking distance from the Fortress and a
local market. The name is Hotel Queen (0312428948).
Personal is very kind, the first morning the waited for us to enjoy the breakfast, we didn't know that it was included, and came too late! The car cabn be parked under the hotel at the parking lot.
