five royal tombs


The Oreung Tombs in Gyeongju-si are the final resting places of four kings of the Park clan—King Park Hyeokgeose, founders of the Silla Kingdom. To the east of the royal tombs lies Sungdeokjeon Shrine, which holds the ancestral tablet of King Park Hyeokgeose. Behind the shrine is the Aryeongjeong Well, said to be the birthplace of Queen Aryeong.
