[2025 Gwacheon Attraction] Travel Guide for Seoul Grand Park (Updated Mar)

#seoul When visiting Seoul, add the Seoul Grand Park to your bucketlist especially if you are travelling with kids along with you. This place houses a vast species of animals. You will surely enjoy sight-seeing and learning at the same time as animals are named, classified, by their breed, habitat, and the ecosystem to which they belong. The zoo showcases exotic birds, dolphins, lions, elephants, giraffes, gorillas, and a lot more. Tours usually include this in their itinerary so you can hop in and enjoy taking photos for keepsakes. If you are an animal lover like me, this is your chance to watch these animals closer.

Seoul Grand Park Christmas tree decorations! Since Seoul Grand Park is famous for its zoo, they added a zoo atmosphere with giraffe and rabbit decorations:) There are many Christmas trees gathered together, so it feels cute. It is smaller than other Christmas tree attractions, but it was nice to take pictures because there weren't many people🎄 #Christmas #SeoulGrandPark #ChristmasTree #ChristmasTreeAttraction

Seoul Grand Park is a great place for an outing! There are many things to see and do, such as a zoo, park, and lift. I recommend it as a date course. #Outing

It's a new restaurant across from Seoul Grand Park. A friend recommended it because it has a rooftop, so we went together. It's a building that was renovated from a house, so if you go up the narrow stairs, you'll reach the second floor store, and if you go outside and go up the stairs again, you'll reach the rooftop with a wide view. #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent

Seoul Grand Park, also known as Seoul Park, is one of the largest public parks in Seoul. Located in Gwacheon district, it is a popular destination for both Koreans and tourists who want to experience nature in the heart of the city. The park offers a variety of attractions, relaxation spots, and activities. It is conveniently located near Seoul Grand Park Station, making it easily accessible from downtown Seoul in a short amount of time. This convenience makes it an ideal destination for families, tourists, and those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

Winter in Seoul brings pleasant sunshine and a slight chill in the air. Over the weekend, I decided to escape the city's hustle and bustle and head to Seoul Grand Park, located not far from the city center, for a relaxing trip surrounded by nature and fun. Getting There: Convenient and Cost-Effective It's easy to get there from the city. Just take Line 4 of the subway to Seoul Grand Park Station, and the park's entrance is right outside the exit. The convenient and hassle-free transportation makes it perfect for those who don't want to drive. Morning at the Park: Stepping into a Green World As soon as you enter the park, it feels like stepping into an oasis. Despite it being winter, the park is still vibrant, with the lake shimmering and a few wild ducks leisurely swimming. Walking along the paths, the tall trees and fresh air instantly lift your spirits. Zoo Exploration: Fun for All Ages Seoul Grand Park is best known for its large zoo. I bought a ticket and stepped into a world of animals. Asian elephants leisurely munching on grass, polar bears showing off their agility in a transparent pool, and playful monkeys jumping around the trees. The zoo has a wide variety of animals, and the environment is designed to be close to nature, making it a great place to bring kids. Highly Recommended: Don't miss the 'Predator Zone' in the zoo, where lions and tigers showcase their majestic presence, making you marvel at the wonders of nature. Rose Garden and Cable Car: Romance and Fun Combined If you love romance, visit the Rose Garden (best viewed in spring and summer) and stroll along the fragrant paths. For a different perspective of the park, try the cable car! It glides over the lake, offering a panoramic view and a great spot for photos. Leisure Tips: Don't Forget to Try the Park's Food After a morning of fun, my stomach was growling. I tried some hot Korean fish cakes and pancakes at the park's food stalls, simple yet satisfying. If you have time, bring a picnic mat and a packed lunch, and find a spot by the lake to enjoy a rare moment of leisure. Evening Return: Reluctant but Satisfied As the sun set, I took the subway back to Seoul, still reminiscing about the day's highlights. Seoul Grand Park is not only a place to connect with nature but also a great spot to slow down and spend quality time with family and friends.

Seoul Zoo, located right next to Grand Park Station Unfortunately, the animals were off that day, so they weren't out much, but it's a pretty large zoo that's usually crowded with families, couples, and young people! It's so big that it's hard to see everything in one day!! I walked around so much that I wished there was a loop lol It seems that the zoo is often closed, so I recommend checking carefully before going.

Visited the Seoul Grand Park on 25 Oct 2024. Getting there is easy to get to via subway line 4 to Seoul Grand Park Station exit 2.

Among the water activities that you can't miss in summer, the famous Psy's Drench Show!! I wanted to go to Waterbomb, but since Seoul is gone, I had to go to Ilsan, but it was too far, so I cancelledㅠㅠ The hottest place in summer to cool off and beat the heat while getting wet!! It's so fun that I don't get tired of it every year!! Psy's Drench Show that you'll definitely want to go again once you go🩵🩵 ✅2024 Psy's Drench Show 📍270-2 Makgye-dong, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do (Seoul Grand Park Parking Plaza) #Waterbomb #Summerfestival #Psy'sDrenchShow #DrenchShow

#SummerDate On the 2nd floor, there are forklifts, sand play, playhouses, merry-go-rounds, mini trains, etc. The 3rd floor has more active activities, so there were a lot of toddlers on the 2nd floor and elementary school students on the 3rd floor. I think the difference between Playworld and other kids' cafes is the indoor play equipment, such as bumper cars, mini trains, and forklift experiences. It's a large indoor kids' cafe that uses the entire 3rd floor, so you can have a fun time with your kids, because it's full of various play equipment and activities. ▪️Address 80 Daegongwon Square, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do (Right behind the Sky Lift boarding platform!)

I really love this place

#cherryblossom2024 Located at southern Seoul, Seoul Grand Park is easily accessible via the subway line 4. The Park is just outside Seoul Grand Park Station exit 2. Was lucky to go there during the festival, when the Park is filled with geogerous cherry blossom and there were lot of programs and activities ongoing. Other than the Park, a Botanical garden and zoo can be also found in the same place.

#cherryblossom2024 Address: 102 Daegongwongwangjang-ro, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea Held from 5 to 7 April 2024, Seoul Grand Park Cherry Blossom Festival was held in conjunction with their 40th anniversary. The main highlight is of course the beautiful cherry blossoms 🌸🌸 which are in full bloom. The park has an impressive 800m stretch of cherry blossom. Decorations and various photo spots are found around the park during the festival. There are also events and activities such as musical performances 🎶 held during the festival. It's a memorable and enjoyable day at the park.

#koreatrip We took the cable car ride into the zoo. The ride itself is great as it saves you the trouble of having to walk up to the zoo and you get to enjoy the scenery. The zoo itself is very huge and can be quite tiring to walk all day. The animals are great of course, and the sun bears were especially friendly to humans. There are interesting sections such as the nocturnal exhibit and the insectarium. There are many restaurants in the zoo itself, alongside the super cool lion cafe. Highly recommend to get a seat by the window to get a close view of the lions. To get back to the metro from the zoo you can take the elephant train, which is just a tram ride back. It costs money and you can buy the ticket from a kiosk near the boarding section.

#springblossom We came to Seoul Grand Park to visit the Zoo. We found it pretty underwhelming. I think this place has seen better days as portions of it looked a bit run down. Also, I think the zoo is more geared towards families and children. The lift portion over the zoo was actually quite fun. And, they had a number of interesting animals including tigers, cougars, anteaters, etc. As with any zoo, animals are often seldom scene - understandable, because I'm sure they tire of being viewed by tourists. We found the layout foe the zoo pretty confusing despite signage which often had English translations. Asidde from that I love the flowers that blooms also in spring.
