La Porte Sungnyemun est le Trésor National N° 1, souvent appelée Namdaemun. Etant la plus grande porte en Corée, la Porte Namdaemun a une entrée de la forme d’une arche, au centre d’une plateforme en pierres. Le pillier et le toit sur la plateforme se divise entre une couche supérieure et une couche inférieure. Il y a une porte pour pouvoir passer à chacune des portes à l’est et à l’ouest. Les herbes vertes entourant la plateforme sont la preuve qu’il s’agissait bien du mur d’un château. Lorsque le premier roi de la Dynastie Joseon, Lee Seong-Gye (règne 1335-1408), a construit la ville capitale, il croyait que le feu atteindrait le Palais Gyeongbokgung, de même que la ville capitale, parce que le Mt. Gwanaksan de Séoul à la forme d’un feu, d’après les principes de Feng-Shui. C’est pourquoi, la tablette sur la Porte Sungnyemun a été inscrite verticalement afin de protéger la ville d’un incendie parce que les caractères chinois qu’on écrit dans le sens horizontal, ressemblent à un feu. L’idéographe de la tablette de la Porte Sungnyemun est solennel, élégant, puissant et décent. L’ idéographe est fameux pour le caractère du Prince Yangnyeongdaegun (règne 1394~1462), le premier fils du Roi Taejong (1367-1422) de la Dynastie Joseon. Comme il est situé au centre d’une grande route, c’est difficile de voir de près la Porte Sungnyemun mais on peut la voir facilement quand on prend un autobus ou marche dans la rue. La nuit, la lampe de mercure sous la Porte Namdaemun s’ajoute à sa beauté naturelle.
