[EP.5] #EVENT Explore Seoul’s Garden City: Parks, History & Urban Nature 🌿✨

Welcome back to Seoul Guide! In EP.5, Lena and Kraf take you on a journey across Garden City Seoul — a city transforming its parks, walkways, and even former industrial spaces into vibrant green landscapes. We begin at Boramae Park, home of the 2025 Seoul International Garden Expo, where 100 gardens created by experts and citizens fill the park with creative greenery. The expo welcomed over 7 million visitors in 111 days, showcasing designer gardens, companion gardens, and even the unique “Stone Traveling the Garden” experience for foreign visitors. Kraf then explores three of Seoul’s representative urban-regeneration parks: 🌳 Yongsan Family Park — a former military base dramatically reborn as a peaceful, cultural green hub. 🌿 Seoullo 7017 — once an old highway overpass, now a sky garden filled with plant life and connected walkways. 🏃‍♂️ Son Kee Chung Park — a running-centered space honoring Korea’s Olympic gold medalist, featuring a living laurel tree awarded during the 1936 Olympics. The episode also highlights other iconic green spaces : • Seoul Forest • Oil Tank Culture Park • Gyeongui & Gyeongchun Line Forest Trails • Seoul Botanic Park • Yeouido Outdoor Library Seoul isn’t just building parks — it’s involving citizens as “urban gardeners” who help green their own city.
