The Park offers glorious views from the cliffs, hillside trails, sightseeing boats, as well as a resort park, marine cultural space, an observatory, a renowned spa, and a breath taking coastal walkway.

Taejongdae

History says the park was named for Korean King Taejong Muyul (654-661) noted for unifying the Three Kingdoms. It was also used by following Kings and magistrates as a recreational playground. Once you see the surrounding area for yourself you won’t question why.

The park also includes restaurants, shops, and souvenir stands to ensure your brief visit to the outdoors isn’t totally devoid of civilization.
