The Ulmil Pavilion is on Moran Hill in the capital Pyongyang. It is a historic building belonging to the Koguryo Dynasty (277 B.C.--A.D. 668) which was famous as a 1,000-year-long powerful country in the East. The pavilion was built as a military commanding post in the mid-sixth century. It shows the high castle-building technique during the Koguryo Dynasty and the distinguished talents of the Korean ancestors.
The present one was rebuilt in 1714.
The spring scenery of Moran Hill viewed from the Ulmil Pavilion was so beautiful that people regarded "Greeting Spring on the Ulmil Pavilion" as one of the eight famous scenes in Pyongyang from olden times.
The snow scene of the Ulmil Pavilion also evokes the admiration of people.
Frost flowers on branches are as beautiful as the flowers in spring and pine trees remain green even in the snowstorm.
The Ulmil Pavilion standing in snow and the old rampart seem to show the strong spirit of the forerunners who bravely fought to defend the country.
The snow scene of the pavilion is in harmony with beauty, tenacity and strong spirit.
