Chollipo, Arboretum in Taean County, South Korea

The Chollipo Arboretum spans 64 hectares of land near the western coast, containing over 6,900 different plant species collected from more than 60 countries.

Carl Ferris Miller, a naturalized American expatriate, established this botanical research center in 1979 to advance plant conservation and sustainable practices in South Korea.

The arboretum incorporates traditional Korean hanok architecture into its grounds, offering overnight accommodations that combine botanical education with cultural experiences.

Visitors can access multiple themed gardens through interconnected walking trails, with rest areas and a café available throughout the extensive grounds.

The location near the Yellow Sea creates specific climate conditions that enable the cultivation of rare plant species not found in other Korean botanical gardens.
