It is a park located 480 meters above sea level, southeast of Seoul, in the Namhansan (“Han Han Mountain”), which contains fortifications dating to the seventeenth century and several temples. Most of the fortress that exists today dates from the Joseon dynasty. The construction of Seojangdae was planned, from 1624, when the Manchúes threatened the Ming dynasty of China. In 1636, during the second Manchu invasion of Korea, King Injo of Joseon took refuge in the fortress in an unfortunate attempt to defy the domination of the Manchu Qing empire of Hong Taiji after the first Manchu invasion of Korea in 1627. King Sukjong Expanded and added Pongamseong in the northeast corner in 1686. In 1693 another annex, Hanbongseong, east of the fort was built. Further work was done during the reign of King Yeongjo (1724-76). The gray brick parapets date back to 1778, during the reign of King Jeongjo.
