I went to watch a traditional performance in which a friend was starring. That part was great. If you can, take a while to watch one even if you can't understand the language. You'll get alot by watching it alone. As for the rest of the facilities.. well, it was so-so. Very touristy. There was a Taekwondo demonstration going on... More

This year was my second visit to Korea, and each time, I always made sure to visit Namsan Park. The first time was winter, 3 years ago. This time, we went during early spring. The climb up from the subway station, for me, is part of the experience. And depending on which road or side street you take, walking up... More

We had a perfect sunny day to enjoy this large open area. A great walk and place to picnic under the trees (buy something along the way and bring with you). Good exercise after a long plane trip. More

when I visit here there is no cherry blossoms yet around this place so it look like a average park, I think it should be better with the Cherry Blossoms. this place would be more beautiful. More

This has always been my favorite place. After the long climb, it is always a treat to look down at the lights that light up the city of Seoul! More

Love the park! I was there during autumn and managed to catch sight of the beautiful red leaves. A lovely place for couple or families, if you are looking to have a good leisure stroll or even picnic. Some part of the of park is undergoing some constructions when I was there, but still it doesn't affect the view or... More

I have lived in Seoul for several years now, and I have been lucky enough to live within walking distance to Namsan Park (South Mountain Park). The park, on the top half of Namsan is plunk in the middle of the city. Most people seem to zip right up to Seoul Tower, which is also a great thing to see,... More
