Namdaemun, gone.


A little belated news, but Namdaemun (literally, the great southern gate) of Seoul has burned down as you can see in the picture. The arsonist has been caught, but what difference does it make, when the nearly 600 years old gate has been burned down ? It has withstood so many invasions of various powers, yet, it was crumpled down by one crazy person...
