Gates of the Villa in Baek Wun Dong Garden

What attracted my attention was the gates of the villa in the garden.
There were 3 kinds of gates there.

The first one made me impressive was the small gate connected with the stream.
I don’t think this gate is meaningful in using.
It would have the symbolic meaning to connect houses with Nature, in my view.

Main gate was in the shape of typical style of traditional noble family’s house.
Interesting thing was this gate was stood to the stream and the trees, not to the road.

Third one was the ordinary gate. In my view, this gate was the only one for real usage.

Actually there was an another kind of gate, which was a gate without gate.
I introduced this space between the wall.

The wall in this garden was made to distinguish the villa from Nature not to protect the villa against the threats from outside.
