The Poseokjeong (Korean: 포석정; Hanja: 鮑石亭; lit. Pavilion of Stone Abalone) site near Namsan in Gyeongju, South Korea, was built in the Unified Silla period. The site once featured a royal pavilion which was said to have been the most beautiful royal villa of the time. Today, the only surviving remnant of the pavilion is a granite water feature.

It was designated a Historic Site of South Korea in 1963.
