Jangchungdan Park, Public park in Jung District, Seoul, South Korea

Jangchungdan Park extends across 297,000 square meters at the base of Namsan mountain, featuring sports facilities and pine tree walking trails.

Emperor Gojong established the Jangchungdan Shrine in 1900 to honor Empress Myeongseong after her assassination in 1895.

Multiple monuments within the park commemorate the March First Movement, independence activist Yu Gwan-sun, and Buddhist reformer Han Yong-un.

The park remains open 24 hours daily and contains baseball fields, tennis courts, and a swimming pool for various recreational activities.

The historic Supyogyo bridge and water level measuring device were relocated to this park in 1959, becoming Tangible Cultural Heritage sites.
