Gwangneung is the joint royal tomb of King Sejo, the seventh ruler of the Joseon Dynasty, and Queen Jeonghui, nestled within a serene, forested landscape. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it offers visitors a peaceful blend of history and nature, especially when paired with a walk through the nearby Gwangneung Arboretum.
광릉은 조선 7대 왕 세조와 정희왕후가 함께 잠든 왕릉으로, 울창한 숲으로 둘러싸인 고요한 분위기가 인상적인 곳입니다. 유네스코 세계유산으로 등재된 조선왕릉 중 하나로, 주변 광릉수목원과 함께 자연과 역사를 동시에 느낄 수 있는 산책 코스로도 사랑받고 있습니다.
