Silver Grass and Stunning Sunset: An Autumn Evening at Seoul's Olympic Park

#bestsunset #100waysoftravel #olympicparkseoul #sunset #silvergrassfestival #autumn #Seoulautumn We headed to Olympic Park in Seoul in late autumn, drawn by the allure of the silver grass fields, which are known to reach their peak beauty during this season. The park, with its expansive open spaces and winding paths, is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike, especially in the autumn months when the fields turn into a sea of silver waves. To our delight, we were greeted by a stunning sunset that painted the sky in soft hues of orange, pink, and gold. The silver grass shimmered under the golden light, creating a magical atmosphere that felt almost surreal. The contrast of the vibrant sunset with the delicate, silvery grass made for the perfect scene, not just for admiring nature but also for portrait photography. Many people around us were taking advantage of the soft, warm lighting, and we couldn't resist capturing a few photos of our own. The combination of the breathtaking sunset and the serene beauty of the silver grass created an unforgettable moment, showcasing the best of Seoul’s autumn charm.

Autumn at Seoul Olympic Park

The Olympic Park in Seoul, with a stadium used to host tournaments during the 1988 Olympic Games, has a park at surroundings with different plants and faunas at different seasons.

Spring time at Olympic Park, Seoul

The favourite season for the most, spring, is long expected after the quarter long winter, where most will enjoy the bloom and blossoms of various faunas. After the nice scene of Cherry blossoms one can expect the stunning full bloom of roses in middle of May. Seoul Olympic Park hosts Rose festival every year for visitors to enjoy the full bloom, as well as having picnic since weather has changed from cool to warm. Full bloom typically lasts 2 weeks and best time to visit is mid to end May.

Seoul's Olympic History

Seoul hosted the Olympics in 1988. Currently the main Olympic Stadium is still standing along with other venues from the games, known as the Jamsil Sports Complex. Some of the sports stadiums are still used for the sports they hosted in 1988 while the Stadium seems to host mostly soccer games and concerts. Nonetheless if you're a history/Olympic buff it's still interesting to spend an afternoon wandering around these gigantic buildings that echo the 80s era. Nearby (30 mins walk; 15 min subway) there is also the Olympic Park, which is a nature park with a sort of gate commemorating the Games. There are further venues featured here as well. This is a bit more interesting as it's a lovely park with hills and a lake right in the heart of the city, as opposed to the Olympic Stadium which is mostly concrete. This park is also closer to Lotte World Tower so it's a good way to spend the day in Jamsil!

Visiting Olympic Park on a Snowy Day

Another spot worth visiting on a snowy day. In the picture, the snowfall isn't too heavy, but if you go on a day with more snow, the park will be even more beautifully covered in white. The park is quite spacious, allowing you to walk around and relax comfortably. If you want to take photos, it's easy to find spots without people in the background. Besides taking photos, it's also a great place for a leisurely walk. Although it might be a bit far from the city center, it's easily accessible by train.

Seoul Olympic Park

I visited the Seoul Olympic Park in the city of Seoul to see a tree that seemed to be standing alone🌲. It looked lonely, yet also gave a strong impression, which made me feel very strange ( ; ; ) Near Incheon Airport, there was a spot where you could capture planes passing right in front of you✈️. The sunset and the plane were a perfect match, and it was very moving🥺. In Seoul, there were many Japanese tourists, making me feel like I was always in Tokyo, but the photo spot near the airport was only frequented by locals, which made me feel very fortunate😏.

Olympic Park in Seoul

#cherryblossom2024 Address: 424 Olympic-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea. Location: You can take subway and stop at the Olympic Park station. Highlights: The Olympic Park in Seoul is a beautiful large park with many different areas and landscapes including manicured to matured wild forests, water streams and cultural buildings like museums, skating areas, etc. The monuments and sculptures are beautiful, impressive and nostalgic. This park is less popular than Seoul Forest Park. I love the huge compound. There is a famous ginkgo street along Olympic Park too. It's really a nice place to hang out on early summer afternoon. There are not many tourists but a lot of locals exercising and relaxing around the area who are cool to interact with. #Spring #Seoul #Korea
