Haengju Fortress has been regarded as a viewing spot where visitors can enjoy the serene atmosphere of cultural heritage along with the beautiful night view of the Han River.


Haengju Fortress is a historic site where the Battle of Haengju, one of the three major battles of the Imjin War, took place. The fortress is a mountain fortress (Twi-moe style) surrounding Deogyang Mountain, with the entire circumference measuring about 1 km.


From the starting point at Daechupmun Gate of Haengju Fortress, visitors can pass by the statue of General Kwon Yul, tour Chungjangsa Shrine and Deogyangjeong Pavilion, and at the summit where the Haengju Battle Monument stands, enjoy the refreshing river breeze along with the expansive night view of the Han River.


The night opening will be operated until October, with visiting hours from 6 PM to 10 PM. The last admission is at 9 PM, and admission is free.


Parking is available at Haengju Fortress Parking Lot 1 and Parking Lot 2. Parking fees apply during regular operating hours, but parking is free for those entering after 6 PM for the night opening.



An official from Goyang Special City said, “We hope many citizens will enjoy the night view of Haengju Fortress and spend healing time through this night opening operation.”
