Points included in this audio guide
Ikheon Este
Ikheon Este is one of three surviving structures from the original Pungpaejigwan complex in Jeonju. The spacious ground floor is open to visitors and serves as a rest area for both locals and tourists exploring the area.
Ikheon West
Ikheon Oeste is one of three surviving buildings from the original Pungpaejigwan complex in Jeonju. Its long, spacious interior is freely accessible, making it a peaceful retreat for both local residents and visitors exploring the area.
Sujiksa Temple
Sujiksa is the guardhouse of the Pungpaejigwan complex, one of the few original structures to survive intact to the present day. What you see here offers a rare glimpse into how the compound functioned during the Joseon dynasty. As one of the oldest extant buildings on site, it stands as authentic evidence of the administrative and defensive organisation that characterised this important historical settlement in Jeonju.
Gamsil (Memorial Tablet House)
The Gamsil is a room within the Pungpaejigwan, Jeonju's official guesthouse, dedicated to displaying commemorative tablets bearing the royal character 'gwol' (闕). These tablets underscore the ritual and political significance the building held during the Joseon dynasty. What to see here offers insight into the ceremonial functions of this important historical site, where state visits and official gatherings took place. The presence of such royal tablets within the guesthouse reflects the elevated status this establishment enjoyed among the kingdom's administrative institutions.
Inner Gate (sole survivor)
The inner gate is the sole survivor of the three original entrances to the Pungpaejigwan complex. Its preservation physically defines the current boundaries of the site, which now encompasses only the area that once lay within its passage. This remaining structure serves as a tangible reminder of the complex's former extent.
