About Korea Flower Park

Korea Flower Park is a beautiful destination any time of year. No matter the season, the Korean Flower Park has something planned for you. The park comes to life during their Tulip, Allium, Autumn Flower, and Light Festivals.

Highlights of the park include:

• Stroller-friendly and wheelchair accessible.
• Pets are welcome but should remain on a leash.
• Facilities include a convenience store, cafe, and souvenir shop.
• Free parking.

During the Korean Flower Park festivals, you may find street vendors, both outside and inside the park, selling street food, desserts, fresh fruit and vegetables, toys, flowers, etc. You’ll see live performances in various parts of the park. You may even catch a trolley around the park.

About Taean-gun

Taean-gun (태안군) exists on the west side of South Korea in Chungcheongnam-do.

Taean-gun is a popular weekend tourist destination for those interested in a quiet weekend away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The county (-gun) offers many things to do such as the Taean Haean National Park, over thirty different beaches, multiple arboretums, many museums, parks, and much much more.

Traveling to Taean-gun via public transportation remains difficult. Visitors may find it easiest to visit the county via personal vehicle or on a travel tour. Those wishing to visit the rural county by bus should allow many hours of additional travel time. However, those traveling by car may find this a relaxing trip with less traffic than in more developed tourist areas.
