About this place

Seoul Botanic Park combines a botanic garden and an urban park, spread across a site equivalent to roughly 70 soccer fields in the Magok development district of Gangseo-gu. The centrepiece is a concave-dish-shaped greenhouse displaying around 3,100 plant species from 12 tropical and Mediterranean cities worldwide, with a Sky Walk bridge offering a bird's-eye view of the entire structure. The park is laid out in four zones, the Open Forest, Theme Garden, Lake Garden and Wetland Garden, and sits right next to Magoknaru Station (Line 9 and Airport Railroad).
