Summary

[edit]
Description
English:
Anchor stones, Pyeng Yang, [s.d.]
For centuries, it was believed that the Pyeng Yang was a boat floating in the waters of the two rivers which make almost an island of the city. Out in the fields at some distance from the city, are these two great stones which are thought to moor the city in some fashion to prevent the city from floating away down the river. Another interpretation is that the stones are the masts of the floating island city.
