Modeled loosely on New York's Central Park, Seoul Forest is a beautifully landscaped 595,000 square meter park in the trendy Seongsu neighborhood, home to a deer enclosure, butterfly garden, and extensive wetlands. It's a favorite among young Seoulites who combine a park visit with coffee and brunch in the adjacent Seongsu district. The park can get very crowded on spring weekends during cherry blossom and wildflower season, so weekday mornings offer a far more peaceful experience.
