Walked the whole Hwaseong wall in Suwon - bring a hat

Went to Suwon last week with my husband and we walked the full loop of the fortress wall, started at Hwaseomun and just followed it around. Took us most of the afternoon with breaks, and the part that goes up the hill has a really nice view over the city. One thing i did not expect, there is almost no shade on the wall path, by afternoon we were done, so bring a hat and water. Also the northern section was much more crowded than the southern one, if you want it quiet maybe start from the other direction.
