Company introduction	Yeongneung is the final resting place of King Sejong, the 4th monarch of the Joseon Dynasty, and Queen Soheon. Among the royal tombs of the Joseon Dynasty, it is the first joint tomb with two different chambers housed under one burial mound. The layout follows instructions in the “Gukjo Oryeui,” making it the quintessential example of royal tombs from the early Joseon Dynasty period.
