Naksan Park is a hilltop park in Jongno with scenic Seoul Fortress Wall trails and sweeping panoramic views of the city. Walking along the ancient fortress wall that once protected the Joseon Dynasty capital offers a unique perspective on Seouls layers of history. The park is especially beautiful at sunset when the city lights begin to twinkle below, and the fortress wall trail continues onward for those who want extended hiking. Less crowded than Namsan, Naksan provides an authentic local outdoor experience.
