Injae Hanggye Fortress - Injae Hanggye Fortress, located in Injae-gun, Gangwon-do, served as a military stronghold for the transportation route through the Baekdudaegan mountain range and was constructed utilizing steep terrain advantageous for defense due to geographic positioning of the passage route. Its military importance continued from the Three Kingdoms period through the Joseon period, and important structures such as Bonghwangdae and Suseonggunjiji (水精軍地, north and south defensive positions) in the Yeongseong region, which have undergone excavation surveys thus far, are well-preserved and among the structures that must be prioritized for preservation.
