Suncheonman National Garden (순천만국가정원)

Suncheonman National Garden & Suncheonman Wetland is the first national garden of South Korea and one of the five major coastal wetlands in the world. The national garden spans 1.12 million square meters and is located in Dosa-dong, Suncheon-si. It is home to 790,000 trees covering 505 species, and 3.15 million flowers covering 113 species. During spring, tulips and royal azaleas are in full bloom, creating magnificent views. Additionally, there is a 30,000 square-meter canola flower field near the Forest of Sharing. You can see yellow waves of canola flowers in full bloom in mid-May. The city of Suncheon has planted 50,000 Japanese hackberries and zelkova trees along major routes in the area to create natural shade. There is a small unmanned personal rapid transit (PRT) system that operates between the Suncheonman National Garden and the Suncheon Literary Museum section (4.64 kilometers in length). After looking around the garden, visitors can take the PRT to the literary museum. There, they can take the Reed Train which travels 1.2 kilometers to Mujingyo Bridge located at the entrance of Suncheonman National Garden. Eco-friendly transportation is also available, such as the Sky Cube, which runs between Suncheonman National Garden and the wetland. ◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu's charm - variety show"Battle Trip Season 2" This is the place where Mi-na of Gugudan and Yoo-jung of Weki Meki, two friends of the same age, set out to see the spring flowers as 20-year-olds.
