Nice green oasis in Seoul
Apr 2022 • Couples
A nice park in Seoul. You can rent some bikes. A nice sculpture outdoor exhibition is part of the park. Moreover some museums in the park can bei visited (smaller ones). A visit to the park can be combined with the Lotte World or Lotte Tower.

Spacious place to walk amid flowers
May 2020 • Friends
I went recently to the rose garden as well as the sculpture park at the Olympic Park. The park itself is not busy at this time due to social distancing amid covid19; but you can still enjoy going for a walk and avoid people as the park itself is huge. I’d probably be coming here for a walk everyday if I’d live closer. The roses, at the Rose Garden are not fully bloomed yet over all but a lot of them are.

A pleasure to visit always
Nov 2019
The park is easily accessible by subway (Mongchontoseong Station) on Line 8, near Jamsil. It is a large park with beautiful scenery. The best is to go there in the afternoon, take the path on the right and then walk anti-clockwise around the park. The alternative subway access is the Olympic Station (P550) but there is a lot walking to do ie from there to walk around the park to Mongchontoseong station.

Great place to visit!
Feb 2018 • Friends
Olympic Park is a huge complex where you can see stadiums, around 200 different statues and there is also a park with a nice nature to walk through. I especially enjoyed visiting the 1988 Olympics flags plaza - interesting to see how many countries do not exist any more and how many changed their flag design.

Relax from the hustle and bustle of the city without leaving
This is a beautiful park near jamsil area of seoul. It has great city views and lots of things to do. There is a swimming pool, bike rentals, and lots of walking trails. It also has artwork spread throughout the park. It's a great place to just relax and enjoy a nice day. They also have a coffee shop inside the park.

A wonderful day at the Olympic Park
Mar 2014 • Couples
Seoul's Olympic Park is an underestimated place, in my opinion. It is a lovely place for a day or at least half a day out.

The park has different parts. There is the 'real' Olympic part, with an Olympic Museum and outdoor sculptures and all. And there is an adjacent sculpture park with the SOMA and another museum.
All in all there are 100-200 huge sculptures from all around the world in a pretty, forest park!! How cool is that?!

There is a lake, you can have a bite and a coffee in Angelinus, you can rent a bike, walk, people-watch and just relax.

If you like sculpture parks, then I highly recommend this place.

Really peaceful and huge
Sep 2019
This park is very relaxing and goo to spend a lazy time. I think Olympic Park is one of the most peaceful park in Seoul.
- Close fom metro line #8 Mongchon Toseong(closer from main entrance) and #5 Olympic Park.
- With mounds, tall trees and other installations, it's also good for a photoshoot.
- Also, there are stadiums for events and sport games.
- In late September, they have Hanseong Baekje Cultural Festival near Peace Gate. It is not to miss.
- There's a pretty nice Korean buffet in the park. Good to try.
- Lots of magpies.
