Junghwamun is the main gate of the main throne hall, Junghwajeon. It was rebuilt in 1906 when Junghwajeon hall was reconstructed with a single-tiered roof after the massive fire in 1904. There are two dragons carved on the stone slab called Dabdo at the foundation of Junghwamun. This is a unique characteristic of Deoksugung Palace while other palaces have phoenixes carved in granite.
