Insider tips

Bring a bicycle or rent one on-site, as the park’s size makes walking to all zones time-consuming.

Sun protection is essential as most of the park consists of open fields with limited natural shade.

Check the official Yangsan city website for seasonal flower blooming calendars before visiting to time your trip with the best displays.

What to avoid

Attempting to explore the entire park on foot without a map, as the scale is deceptively large.
