Podeoksanseong Fortress, Haman

Podeoksanseong Fortress in Haman-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, was built to encircle a mountain summit that lies across San-myeon and Chilwon-eup in Haman-gun and Naeseo-eup in Masan-si. The fortress has a total circumference of 480 m — the east wall measures 190 m, the west wall 180 m, the south wall 50 m and the north wall 60 m — with the wall about 5 m wide and the outer face 5–6 m high, giving it a clear and well-defined overall outline. It would be easy to mistake the south-east and north walls for walls built of earth alone, but traces of stone construction surviving here and there, together with scattered stones, show that they were not built entirely of earth.
