The facts
Opened on June 18, 2005, Seoul Forest had previously undergone a series of changes on Ttukseom (Ttuk Island). In the past the forest had been a royal hunting ground for kings and served as a military inspection facility. But, in more recent decades the area has served a wide variety of functions. Ttukseom initially served as a water-treatment facility, and later as a golf course, horse racing track, and eventually a sports park.
Consisting of five parks spread over 350,000 pyeong (approximately 1.16 million ㎡) of land, Seoul Forest is an eco-friendly zone appreciated not only by the people of the city but also those visiting Seoul. Seoul Forest is rapidly developing into the premium city-park of Korea like Hyde Park in London and Central Park in New York.
* Cultural Art Park (220,000㎡)
Situated in the heart of Seoul Forest, the Cultural Art Park features Seoul Forest Square, Ttukseom Family Field, decorative flower beds, a visitors’ center, a skate park, an outdoor stage, a waterside lounge (restaurant), an in-forest open space, an in-forest play ground and a water play area.

Good place for having picnic! Lot of families but not as crowded as Children's Grand Park. There are a lot of very healthy-looking deer to, just like in the movies--

A brilliant idea to spend time with family or people you love! It is located quite far from city life, which is good, to refresh your mind and body. Seoul forest is definitely my best choice for every seasons. It has its own charm in different season. But of course, its best to visit this place during spring, where you can have picnic while enjoying cherry blossom and other beautiful flowers!
