21016-1 Architecture 2012 325 parts 2% Easy

The LEGO Architecture Sungnyemun (21016-1) interprets South Korea's historic Great Southern Gate, a revered Joseon Dynasty monument. This 325-piece model meticulously recreates the last remaining of Seoul's four late 14th-century capital gateways. Designed by US architect Adam Reed Tucker in collaboration with the LEGO team, the set captures the distinct multi-tiered roof structure and the robust base of the landmark. An included booklet provides details on the monument's history, including its 2008 fire damage and subsequent 2012 restoration, alongside design insights for this collectible. The finished Sungnyemun model measures 10.7 cm tall and 17.6 cm wide, making it a compact display piece for any architecture collection.
