One of Seoul's largest parks with vast lawns, gentle hills, and the famous Cherry Blossom Runway. The area near Mongchontoseong fortress is especially scenic with cherry, forsythia, and green hills.
Olympic Park Cherry Blossom Runway is one of Seouls largest parks with vast lawns, gentle hills, and the famous Cherry Blossom Runway — a long tree-lined path where runners jog beneath a canopy of pink blooms every spring. Built for the 1988 Seoul Olympics, the park retains sculptures and art installations from that era alongside modern additions. The expansive space means it never feels overcrowded even during peak cherry blossom season, making it a favorite among locals who prefer a more relaxed spring experience. Perfect for picnics, jogging, or simply enjoying Seouls spring air surrounded by history and nature.
