Jukju Fortress is located on Mt. Bibong in Maesan-ri. Jukju
Fortress’ inner walls were built during the Shilla Empire and outer
walls during the Goryeo Dynasty. It is not known when the
main walls were erected (1.7km). The outer wall is 1.5㎞ and
inner wall is 270m. Its three layers of stone walls are still
well-preserved. Jukju Fortress was a great battle ground during
the Japanese Invasion of 1594. Jukju Fortress was conquered
by the invaders at one point, but General Hwang, Jin managed to
win it back and stopped the invaders from proceeding to Yongin and
Icheon. From the mountaintop where the battery stands, Anseongbeol,
Icheon, and Janghowon can be observed at a glance. Many battles
were fought here as it has been the center of transportation connecting
Chungcheong-do, Jeolla-do, and Gyeongsang-do to Seoul, as well as
a military strategic base. Next to the inner wall, which is
Gyeonggi-do Monument No. 69, we find the shrine and ritual house
of General Song, Mun Ju who defeated the Mongolian troops. There
is a rest area nearby the ritual house. It is better to take a walk
along the walls than to visit a certain place after another. Luxurious
pine trees and needle-leafed trees make the hiking highly enjoyable.
