Daytrip to Ganghwa Island (7 of 9) – North Gate of the Fortress Wall

Every palace needs a fortress to protect it and this is the north gate area of the fortress that surrounds the Goryo Palace and other important spots for the royals on Ganghwa Island for many years. From the top of the hill, we could see where the Yeomha Strait meets the Han River, as well as the hils of North Korea on the other side.
