Chojijin Fort

초지진

A coastal fort with a shell-scarred pine

Hours
9am–6pm
Address
Choji-ri, Gilsang-myeon, Ganghwa

A low fort crouched on Ganghwa's southern shore. An old pine beside it carries scars said to come from shells in the 1871 US expedition. Climb the wall and the sea opens up. There are only a few cannons and signs, so it suits a quiet stroll.
