Olympic Park
올림픽 공원
Experience a comprehensive park that combines athletics, art, history, education, and relaxation.
A park built to host the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Today, it is used for recreation and cultural activities and is a great place to relax while biking or strolling. Especially in spring, Rose Plaza, which is in full bloom, is a great place to take photos with the abundant rose tunnels in the background and is a popular spot for couples and families to enjoy a picnic around Nahollo Namu (single, lone tree). There are also many other places to enjoy, such as the Soma Museum of Art, where you can enjoy various artworks indoors and outdoors, and Mongchontoseong Fortress, where you can take in the views of the park.
