2025 Gwacheon Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in August)

Spring is back, and flowers are blooming, each competing for beauty. The Seoul Rose Festival is coming in May and June every year, and thousands of roses will be scattered in major parks in Seoul. It is good news for flower lovers, and it is also the best time for rose lovers to immerse themselves in a sea of ​​roses. The spring climate in Korea is neither too hot nor too cold, and it is not as humid and hot as the weather in Hong Kong and other southern regions. It is very comfortable to go to Korea to enjoy the flowers at this time. 🌟🌟🌟 The largest rose exhibition in Seoul is at the Seoul Grand Park Rose Garden. As introduced in the previous article, Seoul Grand Park is a large theme park that combines nature, animals, and entertainment. This article mainly introduces the "Seoul Grand Park Rose Garden".😇 🌟🌟🌟 The best time to view the flowers is from mid-May to early June. May is the month when roses bloom in Korea, so May 14th is the local Valentine's Day💘. With roses in full bloom, the romantic atmosphere is provided directly by nature, full of happiness🥹. 🌟🌟🌟 Seoul Grand Park is divided into many areas and covers a very large area, so you can choose the area you want to go to before departure and choose different tickets or packages. Different packages have different prices. (Except for the more expensive tickets for Seoul Park's amusement rides, the others are very affordable. 🙈) Just reserve enough time to visit the area you want to go. 📍Address: 102, Daegongwonjang-ro, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do 🕰️Opening hours: Same as the zoo and theme garden (🌹Rose Garden) March-April/September-October 09:00–18:00 (last admission 17:00) May-August 09:00–19:00 (last admission 18:00) November-February 09:00–17:00 (last admission 16:00) Transportation: Subway Line 4 (437) Seoul Grand Park Station Exit 2 Put on a beautiful dress 👗, bring photography equipment with enough storage space, and take thousands of beautiful photos!

#Seoul Attractions 🇰🇷Seoul Grand Park, a park I have visited two or three times, but I never had enough time to visit each time. It covers an area of ​​2.77 million square meters and has 348 species and more than 2,975 animals. Not only that, it is also the largest comprehensive theme park in Korea that combines culture, nature, and entertainment. This park where humans and nature coexist brings us endless happiness and joy. ❤️❤️ It is the only theme park I have ever been to where I can enjoy the most fun rides without queuing. (I really love it). This place is really huge, and one day is often not enough to explore. It is divided into many different facilities and areas. Children's Zoo Theme Garden "Rose Garden" - Don't miss the Rose Festival from mid-May to early June, it's so beautiful. Botanical Gardens Forest bathing area Camping site Seoul Land 🌟🌟🌟This article focuses on "Seoul Land". This time we bought the package: Elephant Train-Zoo-Sky Cable Car (It has many different areas that require additional tickets or package tickets, such as the zoo, rose garden, Seoul Land, etc., so you must know which area you want to go to and buy the tickets in advance!) We took the elephant train and went directly to "Seoul Land" to play. 🌟🌟🌟 You need to buy additional tickets to enter Seoul Land, and the tickets are not cheap! A family of three spent more than 90,000 won. There are so many amusement facilities here, the houses are colorful, and many of the facilities are rarely available in Disney or other parks. (But it makes me dizzy and keeps spinning in circles, but it's very enjoyable 😂). There is almost no need to queue for any of the projects. They start as soon as someone gets on board. It's so cool. I especially recommend playing the adult version of bumper cars. It’s fun to collide with strangers! (They also have bumper cars for kids, but adults are not allowed to ride.) Next is the sky bike. It was my first time to ride a sky bike and I found it very novel. Riding on the super cool robot sky bike, circling in the air, and watching other people playing amusement rides, it was a unique experience. I played here for too long, and when I wanted to see the animals, the zoo was closed. 🌟🌟🌟 (If you want to see animals, remember to go to the zoo first because they close early!) Finally I wanted to take the Sky Cable Car back, but it was closed because it was too late 🙈🙈😂😂 Finally, we chose the elephant train to return. ❤️❤️❤️ If you bring your kids to Seoul, remember to bring them to Seoul Land in Seoul Grand Park. No need to queue up, enjoy it all at once🙈🙈😂😂 (I really don’t like the horrible experience of having to queue for an hour to play each facility in Ocean Park and Disney.) 🌟🌟🌟If you are tired of playing, there will be a food supply store inside, don’t worry😇 📍Address: 102, Daegongwonjang-ro, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do Opening hours⌚️: Zoo/Theme Garden March-April, September-October 09:00–18:00 (last admission 17:00) May-August 09:00–19:00 (last admission 18:00) November-February. 09:00–17:00 (last admission 16:00) Camping site Camping site use on the day: 09:00–19:00 Overnight (camping tent use): 12:00-10:00 the next day Aerial Cable Car Line 1 Zoo exterior November-February 10:00–17:30 March-October 09:30-18:30 Inside the Zoo on Line 2 November-February 10:00–17:00 March-October 09:30–17:30 transportation: Subway Line 4 (437) Seoul Grand Park Station Exit 2 #Seoul Places to Visit #Seoul Grand Park #Seoul

#DomesticTravel #GwacheonTravel . Kraken Island, a huge new playground at Seoul Land that opened on April 27th😳😳 . I was really curious because it was kept under wraps until just before opening, but when I visited yesterday, its size was enormous🥹🥹 There were a lot of people, but it's so big that it can accommodateㅎㅎ . There are various slides and play areas next to the water playground, so you can play all day👍👍 Actually, worrying about things to do here is ridiculous, and you have to worry about Mom and Dad's stamina😊 . 🚩Kraken Island 🔹️181 Gwangmyeong-ro, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do Seoul Land

Seoul Grand Park is a large park located in Seoul and is also a place worth visiting. In this park, you can see many beautiful red leaves and ginkgo hills, which makes the scenery of the whole park more beautiful. If you want to go to Seoul Grand Park, you can choose to take the subway or bus. It is especially recommended that if you depart from Seoul Grand Park Station, you can choose Exit 2. After exiting, you only need to walk about 10 minutes to reach the park. There are many theme areas in this park, such as the Children's Zoo, Botanical Garden, Rose Garden, etc. These areas have their own unique charm, allowing you to fully experience the charm of nature. Especially during the autumn leaf season, you can choose to take the aerial cable car, which is a very special experience. On the cable car, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire park and see the red and orange autumn leaves on the mountain tops. It is an unforgettable visual feast. In addition to the aerial tram, you can also go to the zoo. In the zoo, there are many cute little animals, such as monkeys, pandas, etc. The performances and exhibitions of these animals are very interesting and allow you to feel the charm of animals. All in all, Seoul Grand Park is a place worth visiting. If you want to experience the beauty of nature and the charm of animals, you might as well come here to experience it. #Japanese and Korean urban hotels

The National Gwacheon Science Museum is likely to get tired if you just keep looking at the exhibits. So you need to take a break in between, and at times like this, I recommend visiting the outdoor playground and experience facilities. In particular, the outdoor playground, Odd Space, which was created for the purpose of improving physical ability, is the core of the National Science Museum's outdoor facilities that children also enjoy very much^^ I definitely recommend visiting with your children. 📍National Gwacheon Science Museum 🔹️110 Sanghabeol-ro, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, Exit 6 of Daegongwon Station on Subway Line 4 🔹️6 science museums organized by theme 🔹️Plenty of parking, food court, and cafe . . . #SeoulSuburbs #ScienceMuseum #Gwacheon

Seoul Land has a lot of attractions that children under 120cm can ride! Also, the ticket prices are cheap, so it's not a burden. Also, there's a Waterbomb festival every two hours, with exciting music, so both children and adults can have fun overcoming the hot summer. There are also experiential observation centers like Jurassic Park and Alice Wonderhouse, so there are a lot of things to see and photo zones, and since it's indoors, it's great for cooling off in between! #SeoulLand #Family #Waterbomb #ThemePark #AmusementPark

It rains almost every day in Korea during the recent rainy season It's a rare good day, so of course we have to go out and take beautiful photos If you want to take a photo like under the blue sky, you must go to Seoul Grand Park! Seoul Grand Park 📍 102 Line 4, Grand Park Station, Exit 2 09:00-19:00 The Grand Park has a zoo, a large garden, Seoul World (Seoul Land), etc., all of which require additional admission. If you don’t want to go to the paid areas, you can also see the beautiful landscape by taking a walk in the big park! There are large tracts of woods and lakes in the big park, and the reflections are super beautiful It takes me about an hour and a half to walk around the park. If you go to the paid park, it may take most of the day to a whole day! I suggest that if you want to go, you can walk around the park. The journey is much easier and Koreans also walk there. If you have difficulty in moving, there are elephant carts available for you to ride. The author recommends that if you don't want to go to the amusement park (Seoul Land), you can pay to go to the big garden. Every spring and summer, the large area of ​​roses attracts many people! Moreover, it is very close to the lake, and there are many kinds of animals such as sheep and lions that can be visited up close. The admission fee is only more than HK$20, which is great value for money! Those who like animals can also pay to go to the zoo. The park is very large and you can find all kinds of animals 🦁🐯🦊🐻🐰🐒🐔🐴 The park has an open-air cable car, but the price is a bit expensive. I recommend you take it once because it is just across the lake and the scenery is super magnificent. In fact, the Grand Duchy is super beautiful in all four seasons and the scenery is very different. It is also especially suitable for family travel! The kids will love it! #KoreaTravel #OverseasTravel #SeoulTravel #Seoul #SeoulGrandPark #SeoulCheck-inHotspots

#SeoulLand SeoulLand is an amusement park located next to Gwacheon Grand Park. Since it is hosted by Seoul City, you can ride various rides at a much cheaper price than other amusement parks. 🤍Rides Maybe because there are a lot of kids, it's not very thrilling. But the good thing is that the waiting time is shorter than other places! 🤍Theme The Hanok theme was impressive, and you can also enjoy Jeon, Gukbap, and Makgeolli here. The seasonal Halloween theme was also impressive. +In addition, one of the big advantages of SeoulLand is that it opens a sledding slope and ice fishing in the winter. Enjoy winter activities in Seoul too.

#Tourist Attraction Review If you want to escape the boredom of Seoul's city, how about this place? The fact that you can refresh yourself without having to travel to other areas!! In particular, if you use the lift, you can heal while looking at the river view. Arrival is Seoul Grand Park Zoo!! Enjoy nature while seeing animals and eating delicious snacks at the zoo!!

Situated at the foot of Cheonggyesan Mountain, the basic scenery is artistic, and the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, so it was a really beautiful place to eat! The pure white cherry blossoms were beautiful, but the cherry blossoms were my first time seeing them, and the colors were really pretty! The meal at the courtyard was also really neat, and it felt right when combined with the fluttering cherry blossoms. A delicious place, a place that is pleasing to the eye, and above all, a place where you can find sentimental props everywhere and take a picture to remember💕 #KoreanFood #DeliciousMeal #Cheonggyesan #TailCafeKoreanSetMeal #CherryBlossomRestaurant
