Yeouido Park, Urban park in Yeouido district, Seoul, South Korea.
Yeouido Park is a green space of around 232,000 square meters with landscaped gardens, exercise areas, walking paths, and recreational facilities along the Han River banks. The grounds offer bike rentals, outdoor fitness equipment, and designated picnic spots for visitors.
The park was established in 1999 and replaced a former industrial zone as part of Seoul's effort to create green spaces in the financial district. This transformation was a key step in bringing nature into a densely built urban area.
The National Assembly Building stands on the grounds and makes this location a central place for national celebrations and public gatherings throughout the year.
The area is easy to reach via several subway stations and bus lines. On-site facilities and pathways are well maintained, so visitors of all mobility levels can enjoy the park.
Each spring, hundreds of cherry blossom trees transform the grounds into a sea of pink flowers and create an annual festival that draws visitors from across the country. This bloom season is one of the most popular times of year to explore the park.
