Boshingak Bell Pavilion - DiscoveringKorea.com (sitios de interés)

Boshingak (???) is a large bell pavilion located at the Jonggak Intersection of Jongno, a major thoroughfare in central Seoul that bears its name ("Jongno" literally means Bell Street). Originally constructed in 1396 and moved to its current location in 1440, the bell was rung to announce the time and to signal the opening and closing of the city's fortress gates or in the event of fire. The structure has been destroyed several times by war and fire.

A bell-ringing ceremony occurs daily (except Mondays) year-round from 11:30-12:30.
