Details
Seonjeongneung, a UNESCO World Heritage site, houses Seonneung, the tombs of King Seongjong (the 9th king of Joseon) and Queen Jeonghyeon, alongside Jeongneung, the tomb of King Jungjong (the 11th king). Seonneung features a Dongwon-igangneung style, where burial mounds sit on different ridges around a single T-shaped shrine, beautifully showcasing the formality and structural artistry of Joseon royal tombs. In the heart of Gangnam, it offers 500 years of history and a peaceful rest along pine forest paths.
