The city of Suwon South Korea has a large wall that used to protect the city in the 17 and 1800's. This is one of the gates to the fortress. The walls of the old fortress go around a large part of the city and is a popular place for people to sightsee and walk.
Thank you to everyone for the kind votes and comments. This is a new personal best for me both in score and place. I am very happy to received such positive feedback on this image. The people of DPC are truly wonderful and I feel blessed to have met all of you.

Great job on a slow exposure, makes me want to visit more of Korea. I can never quite get enough motion when I try similar shots. Always manage to pick the one time a busy road isn't busy.
A great capture here. I like the effects of the tail lights zooming around the corners and expecially like the star shaped lights on the right side. A very scenic place, enhanced by you choice of exposure. Well Done.
Almost looks like the fortress must have been photoshopped in (being that it's in such contrast to the surroundings, not that the photo looks fake). I'm surprised this didn't make the top 10, it looks custom-made for what the general DPC voter wants in a picture. (If such a generalisation can be made)
This could have sat equally comfortably in the dichotomy challenge and would have garnered the same score of 8 from me. A very well composed and well executed photograph of an interesting urban landscape.
