The Taesong Fortress (Korean: 대성산성) was a city fortress and the capital of Koguryo, until 668.[1] It lies between the rivers Taedong and Pothong.[1] Parts of the city walls, its gates (Taedong Gate, Pothong Gate) and pavilions (Ulmil Pavilion and Ryongwang Pavilion) still remain in the city of Pyongyang, North Korea.[1] The fortress has been dated to the 3rd-5th centuries, during the Koguryo period.[2]

The walls of the fortress have a circumference of 7,218m.[3][4] (Another source gives the walls as being 7,076 metres round with total length of its walls being 9,284 metres)[2] Built at the foot of Mount Taesong, the fortress provided protection for the capital, and held wells, storehouses and armories behind its walls.[5] It remains one of the largest stone fortifications found in Korea in both its circumference and the area enclosed.[6]

It is national treasure No. 8 of the DPRK.[7]
