Janganmun is the north gate and main entrance of Suwon Hwaseong Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is the largest fortress gate in Korea, surpassing Seoul's Sungnyemun (Namdaemun) in scale, and features a distinctive double-walled ongseong (barbican) structure. King Jeongjo used this gate as the official entrance during his royal processions to Suwon.
