East Nine Royal Tombs [UNESCO World Heritage]

구리 동구릉 [유네스코 세계문화유산]

📍 197, Donggureung-ro, Guri-si, Gyeonggi-do

Introduction

East Nine Royal Tombs are located in a large forest area, and they
are the resting place of Joseon's kings and queens. There are nine royal mausoleums in total. The tombs are very large compared to other tombs in Korea, and the surrounding forest adds to the scenery. The nine royal mausoleums include the tomb of Joseon dynasty’s founder King Taejo (1335-1408), which is called Geonwolleung.

A thick forest surrounds the mausoleums, and between the graves there are casual walking trails. The burial site carries 600 years of Joseon history with it.
