There have been approximately 260.5 thousand visitors to Yeongneung in South Korea in 2022. Numbers are slowly recuperating after taking a slump during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Yeongneung is the tomb of one of the most famous kings of Korean history, Sejong of Joseon, also called Sejong the Great, and his wife, Queen Soheon. Sejong ruled over the Joseon Dynasty, which encompassed the Korean Peninsula, from 1418 until his death in 1450. He remains one of the most revered individuals of Korean history, signified by a statue of his at Gwanghwamun Plaza in the capital city Seoul. One of his major achievements was the creation of the native Korean alphabet hangul in 1443, which was published from 1446. Together with other Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty, it has been registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2009.
