About

Located in Hansan-myeon, Tongyeong, Gyeongsangnam-do, Jangsado Sea Park is an eco-friendly marine cultural park that harmonizes an island topography resembling a long snake with a habitat of over 100,000 native camellia trees. Retaining the natural topography of the island, which used to be inhabited, the traces of former residents' lives, such as the closed Jangsado branch school, Seomagijip, and a small church, have been neatly restored. An attractive exploration course connects the red camellia tunnel path and the rainbow bridge, well-known as drama filming locations, with various observatories where you can appreciate the hidden scenery of the Hallyeosudo waterway.

Various attractions such as a botanical garden, outdoor performance venue, and maze garden are also available.

Preview

When viewed from above, Jangsado looks like a long snake, which is why it was also called Jinbaemiseom. Take a slow walk along the island's paths, where a tunnel of red camellia flowers and traces of the old village remain.

Rather than following a guide, it is more enjoyable to simply walk around and experience the island for yourself. Relax and take in the moment, letting these stories play comfortably like background music.
