Gwacheon Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

Family-Friendly Seoul Grand Park

#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.

best fall colours

this is a place name Seoul Grand Park. it is very popular in Koreans but not very famous for tourists. it is very big park which has many place to visit individually. there is a very big zoo and very beautiful herb garden. for each location there is difference entrance fee but it is only 5000KRW for zoo and 2000KRW for herb garden. you can get a ticket for every attractions pass for 25000KRW which is like 20 USD so it is a family budget location as well. there is a very big science museum for kids to have fun and art museum for adults as well. if you travel with kids, it is a great location to visit . very beautiful lake in the middle and you can have a walk around it. also trees have many different colours of leaves so it is very good choice to visit in fall. #seoul #family Vacation #koreantrip #fallingforfall

Seoul Grand 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.

Seoul Grand Park

#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.

Weekend Visit to Seoul Land: Cherry Blossom Review and Tips

I visited Seoul Land over the weekend! 1️⃣ Parking Tips Around 11 AM, the parking lot at Seoul Grand Park is almost full. You need to start early if you want to park. For those visiting Seoul Land, you must park in the Seoul Land parking lot to get free parking! It's different from the Seoul Grand Park parking lot. 2️⃣ Cherry Blossom Spot Tips Walk up to Seoul Land instead of taking the elephant train. If you go in the opposite direction of the elephant train, you can walk along a beautiful cherry blossom path all the way to Seoul Land. Inside Seoul Land, if you go to the right of the entrance and head to the end of the outdoor seating area at Lotteria, you'll find stunning cherry blossom trees in full bloom! 3️⃣ Picnic Tips There are many restaurants where you can buy food, but there are also plenty of seats available for dining, so it's great to bring a packed lunch. Near the Seoul Land food court, there is a table zone available for dining. There are parades at Seoul Land, and the cherry blossoms and tulips are in full bloom, making it a great place for photos :) I recommend purchasing your tickets in advance to get a discount! It's also essential to check for card discounts in advance!

Huge zoo in Seoul

Wonderful outing for family and those that like cable car. The zoo has cable car facility which reduced walking hours by 80%. There are tigers and active panther . The rest of animals may not able easily seen. As their enclosure is huge. Good place to spend a day hiking and animal watching

A different zoo experience

#freehotelstay A different zoo which look more like a park with beautiful flowers and trees. it’s my first time seeing animals like wolves, foxes and bears. The sky lift was awesome overlooking Seoul grand park and the zoo. The entrance fee is very affordable around 3.5 Singapore dollar and the sky lift is 9 Singapore dollar for 1 way and 21 for unlimited ride. I strongly encourage everyone to try the sky lift.

Theme Garden Grand Seoul Park

#springblossom Beautiful forest and must visit in the spring :)There are lots of cherry blossom trees and other beautiful flowers. And also able to see deers and feed them by purchasing deer food from near vending machine. It's a quite huge place and if you raise a dog, he or she will really love it !🐶It is a garden where you can see beautiful roses in spring, not only is it an interesting place where you can see various animals. Overall, it's easy to take a walk, so it's tiring. No, you can appreciate the beautiful scenery. I think the experience of feeling at ease while walking around the lake is also a very rare experience. It is a wonderful space where the highlights are enriched every year.
