Wandu Shancheng or the mountain fortress Hwando is an archaeological site of the Koguryŏ (Chinese Gaogouli ) empire and is located 2.5 kilometers northwest of the city of Ji'an in the Chinese province of Jilin . It is located near the Guonei Cheng site , which also belongs to the middle Koguryŏ period. They have been on the list of monuments of the People's Republic of China (2-52) since 1982 and have been listed as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site " Capitals and Tombs of the Ancient Kingdom of Koguryo " since 2004 .
Wandu Mountain Fortress (in Shancheng Village, Tongsheng Street District of Ji'an) was built in 198 and destroyed in 342. It served temporarily as the capital.
Christopher I. Beckwith traces the name of the city in the Koguryŏ language back to the “Central Eurasian term ordu ~ ordo , capital, royal court, royal camp” ”, from which the German word“ horde ”goes back.
