Northwest Gongsimdon

서북공심돈

Treasure No. 1701. Money means a tall watchtower that monitors what happens inside and outside the sanctuary, and public money is an empty structure. The interior can be divided into layers and climbed up and down through a ladder, and many holes can be drilled up and down to look at the movements outside and attack the enemy with arrows or guns. In Hwaseong, Suwon, there are three public funds — the Northwest Simdon, the Southern Simdon and the Northeast Gongsimdon — which are built over Hwaseomun Bukchi.
