Remains of tram track from Japan's colonization of Korea

This photo, released by the Seoul metropolitan government on March 6, 2023, shows the remains of a tram track, installed during Japan's 1910-45 colonial rule of Korea, in front of Gwanghwamun, the main gate of Gyeongbok Palace, in Seoul, where the city government has been restoring the gate's "woldae," destroyed by imperialist Japan. A woldae is a stage built with stone in front of ancient gates for royal rituals or ceremonies. (Yonhap)
