We focus on the Winter Olympics now, which are a little more than a month away from taking place in Pyeongchang, South Korea. The torch relay for the relay now approaching the final stretch, with its latest stop a former Korean royal fortress in Suwon.

The flame being lit at Samsung Digital City, then carried through the streets of Suwon before ending the day at the historic Hwaseong Haenggung Palace. A Haenggung, or detached palace, was a temporary fortress where Korean royals once resided during times of war or periods of travel. (You learn things here on Sports Scene.) Completed in the late 18th century, Hwaseong Haenggung Palace is the largest remaining of these fortresses in the country. At least 75-hundred torchbearers will help transport the Olympic symbol across the country, as it makes its way to the final destination -- Pyeongchang for the Opening Ceremony February ninth.
