The East Nine Royal Tombs, situated on the eastern outskirts of Hanyang (the Joseon dynasty capital), represent a significant collection of nine royal burial sites. This area serves as the final resting place for seven kings and ten queens from the Joseon era. The surrounding forest paths are accessible to the public during the spring and fall seasons. Additionally, the East Nine Royal Tombs Healing Culture and Arts Festival takes place here every autumn, offering a blend of cultural and artistic experiences.
