    Juheulgwan - Yeongnam Gateway No.1 (주흘관 - 조령제1관문)

    Yeongnam Gateway No. 1 (or Juheulgwan) was built in 1708, the 34th year of the reign of King Sukjong, to defend against enemy attacks from the south. There are three front sections and two side sections with two side doors. The archway (hongyaemun) is 3.6 meters high, 3.4 meters wide, and 5.4 meters thick. The door (daemun) is 3.6 meters high, 3.56 meters wide and 11 cm thick. Left and right of the archway, the rampart is 4.6 meters high, 3.4 meters thick, and 188 meters long. The wall is 1 to 3 meters high, 2 to 4 meters thick and 500 meters long to the east, 400 meters long to the west. There are 2 floodgates. Of the three gateways, this one most closely resembles the original structure.
