About

A tranquil green space where you can take a brief rest amidst the bustling streets of Seoul's Gangnam, Dosan Park was established to commemorate independence activist Dosan Ahn Chang-ho and his wife, Lee Hyeryen. In the center of the park are their graves and statues, and as you walk along the promenade, you will come across a memorial hall where you can catch a glimpse of Dosan's life and philosophy. It is a meaningful resting place where you can briefly reflect on history under the shade of dense trees and have a peaceful time of contemplation away from the busy daily life of the city.
