    Aguard pavilion, called poru in Korean, is an outwardly projecting structure topped with a pavilion that functioned as a soldiers' lookout. There are five guard pavilions in Hwaseong Fortress.

    The Northeastern Guard Pavilion was regarded as the most important guard pavilion, as it is located on relatively high ground between the Eastern Command Post and the Northeastern Corner Pavilion and can easily oversee the surrounding area. The dragon head-shaped decorations on the roof and the brick platform between the wall and the pavilion are the only such cases among the guard pavilions in Hwaseong Fortress.
