Sangdong Tunnel, Miryang

Built around 1905, these facilities are two tunnels measuring 40 m and 60 m in length, built for the opening of the Gyeongbu Line in 1905. When the route of the Gyeongbu Line was changed in the early 1960s, the former track bed was paved over with concrete, and the tunnels are now used by vehicles and pedestrians. Although built before 1905, they form a very long semicircular ceiling, laid in stone at the bottom and brick above — a remarkably advanced construction technique for the period.
