Bugaksan Mountain (Seoul City Wall)
백악(북악)산 (서울 한양도성)
An old fortress trail where a 600-year city wall runs along the ridge.
The Hanyangdoseong wall, first raised in 1396 under King Taejo, rides the ridge of Baegak, the tallest of the four inner mountains that ring the old capital. Walking the ramparts past Sukjeongmun, the north gate, you feel the scale of the wall that once wrapped Seoul.
