SamnyeonSanseong submitted by Aska : Site in South Korea (Vote or comment on this photo)
A fine and very solid hillfort in South Korea, which can be seen clearly from some distance. It is the only hillfort whose construction is recorded in literature : the construction by Silla kingdom began in 470 CE and was accomplished 3 years later ; ‘samnyeon’ means ‘three years’ (‘sanseong’ means ‘mount castle’). 1,680m circumference. Now preparing for registration as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
