평양 현무문(玄武門).
The north gate of the north fortress of Pyongyang, first built in the 6th century, rebuilt in 1714. It became a theatre of war in 1894 when Japanese troops defeated Qing troops in the Battle of Pyongyang. The storming of Hyonmu Gate by the Japanese was a crucial event of the Sino-Japanese War and forms the subject of many contemporary Japanese woodblock prints. The gate pavilion was destroyed by American bombs in 1952 and reconstructed in 1954.
