Hwanghakjeong is a traditional Korean archery pavilion in Sajik-dong, Jongno-gu, tracing its roots back to the royal archery grounds of the late Joseon era. Set against the scenic backdrop of Mt. Inwang, it offers visitors a rare glimpse into Korea's time-honored art of gungdo, or traditional archery.
