Remains of the ancient Koguryŏ city of Kungnae (modern Tong’gou in Jilin Province on the Chinese side of the Yalu River) and of Anhak Place in P’yŏngyang give a glimpse of Koguryŏ palaces. While only some plinths and fragments of roof-tiles have been found on the Kungnae site, revealing little about the palace in general, the excavation of the Anhak site showed the scope of the palace grounds and the arrangement of halls, covered passageways and gates.
