Suwon, a favored day trip destination from Seoul, is the largest city in Gyeonggi-do province. It boasts World Heritage-listed fortifications that still encircle its center. In the 18th century, Suwon nearly became the nation’s capital when King Jeongjo of the Joseon dynasty constructed the 5.7km-long walls between 1794 and 1796, in preparation for relocating the royal court south.
