Namsomun (南小門) or Gwanghuimun

The lovely Small Southern Gate


Nam·so·mun or "Small Southern Gate" [남소문/南大門] is also called Gwang·hui·mun or "The Gate of Bright Prosperity" [광희문/光熙門]. This lovely smaller gate is located near Dongdaemun, the Great Eastern Gate. You can even walk from one to another, it may take you 15 min. It's really a lovely and well preserved gate in a quiet little neighborhood. I had very good angles to take photos. Check them out here:
