Capital Cities and Tombs of the Ancient Koguryo Kingdom

Details

The Capital Cities and Tombs of the Ancient Koguryo Kingdom, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004, preserves the 700-year legacy (37 BCE–668 CE) of Northeast Asia's influential Goguryeo regime. Located in Ji'an (Jilin) and Huanren (Liaoning), it features three fortress-cities—Guonei, Wandu Mountain, and Wunu Mountain—alongside 40 royal/noble tombs, including the "Oriental Pyramid" (General's Tomb) and the Gwanggaeto Stele with 1,775 Chinese characters. This site showcases unique stone masonry, defensive architecture, and vibrant murals blending nomadic and Buddhist influences.
