About

The Ttukseom site, which was a hunting ground for kings during the Joseon dynasty and Seoul's first water purification plant, was reborn as a large-scale urban forest in 2005 through the participation and funds of citizens. Boasting a vast site of about 350,000 pyeong, it is decorated with four unique theme spaces: Culture and Art Park, Natural Ecological Forest, Nature Experience Learning Center, and Wetlands Ecological Park. With equestrian statues, a mirror pond, an open family yard, and ecological experience facilities where you can observe deer and butterflies, it is a great place to enjoy nature and cultural leisure together in the city.
