Hwaseong Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, hosts the Suwon Hwaseong Cultural Festival every autumn. The festival’s main event is the “King Jeongjo’s Royal Parade,” a reenactment of King Jeongjo’s procession to pay respects to his father Crown Prince Sado’s tomb. This spectacular event features over 4,000 participants in traditional Joseon-era costumes marching along a 59km route. The “King Jeongjo’s Dasobangwa” program, offering a taste of royal court cuisine served for the Banquet of Lady Hyegyeong-Gung Hong, is especially popular among international tourists. Additionally, the festival includes fortress-building experiences, night tours, and various reenactment events and performances, all linked to Hwaseong Fortress, Suwon.

Suwon was one of four main regional government centers during the Joseon dynasty. Hwaseong Fortress, built to protect the city, was designated as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site on December 12, 1997 for its historical value. The fortress offers various performances daily as well as the Suwon Hwaseong Cultural Festival every fall. The walls stretch for 5,700 kilometers, with Paldalsan Mountain at the center. The fortress, constructed from 1794 to 1796, was built as a display of King Jeongjo’s filial piety towards his father and to build a new pioneer city with its own economic power.
