Namsan Beacon Station

A bongsudae is an ancient communication method that conveyed urgent news using fire and smoke. By lighting fires on high mountains, signals were sent during the day through smoke and at night through firelight. The Namsan bongsudae was established after the capital was moved to Hanyang in the 3rd year of Joseon's founding king (1394) and was used for approximately 500 years until the year following the Gabo Reform. It is sometimes called 'Mokmyeongsan bongsudae' after the old name of Namsan, and is also referred to as 'Gyeongbongsudae' because it is located in Seoul.
