Dosan Park, Memorial park in Gangnam District, South Korea
Dosan Park is a memorial park in Gangnam District with winding pathways, stone walkways, ponds, and gardens planted with native vegetation across its grounds. The landscape combines open grassy areas with planted sections, offering varied routes for walking and sitting.
The park was established in 1973 to honor independence activist An Changho through a dedicated memorial hall. The facility documents his role in Korea's struggle for freedom and independence from colonial rule.
The grounds honor a prominent figure in the Korean independence movement and serve as a gathering place for concerts and seasonal celebrations. Traditional Korean garden design here creates spaces for reflection and community gatherings.
The park is accessible from Apgujeong Station and Apgujeongrodeo Station, both located nearby in the neighborhood. Plan your visit around the memorial hall's operating hours to see the exhibitions and facilities on site.
Educational plaques scattered around the grounds tell stories from different chapters of Korean independence history. In spring, cherry blossoms create a soft pink canopy that transforms the entire space into a serene garden.
