Chuncheon Geunhwadong Flagpole Supports춘천 근화동 당간지주

About

Standing in Geunhwa-dong, Chuncheon, the Chuncheon Geunhwadong Flagpole Supports remain in their original location and form, facing each other on an east–west axis. The two pillars are simple and unadorned, with no decoration on either their inner or outer faces. They rise from a tall two-tier base, and the edges of each side are slightly softened as a decorative touch. Near the top, an arched line curves downward from the inner side toward the outer side. This is hard to make out from the outside, but from the front or back you can faintly see a circular line covering roughly the outer quarter of the top.
