[2024 Incheon Attraction] Travel Guide for Freedom Park (Updated Sep)

1st western style park in Korea

#seoultrip Very first western style park in Korea whose name has changed few times. There is a statue of 5 star General Dogulas MacAurthur. Also several other monuments as well as social club house which must be also very first in Korea. It's located in East Incheon near the China Town. There are pretty and well organized paths. Also, there are a couple of famous monuments; the Korean-USA centennial Monument, the status of MacArthur. It's a great park. I was walking in Chinatown when I decided to take the stairs and hence arrived at the park. It' a quiet place and there's a pavilion where you can see the port area of Incheon.

I took my mother to travel with my mother to the Freedom Park in Incheon, and finally let my mother round a cherry blossom nightmare. Its like seeing the first time I saw cherry blossoms in Busan last year. Its really like being a child. It seems that my route is still very wise, grabbed the tail of the cherry blossoms! The cherry blossoms in Seoul have almost fallen, but Incheon is still a lot~

🇰🇷 Freedom Park inside a Forest

#closetonature #100WaysOfTravel Get close to nature with this commemoration of inside Imjingak Pavilion. A large forested area and some parts have been converted to tourism for sightseeing and experiencing as part of the DMZ tour. It is unusual because from outside you see it as a forest area but the roads will bring you into the park and there is even a War Memorial. What is even more unique is you can get North Korea currency here by buying them as souvenirs and you can get an entire set. #southkorea #seoul #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

#closetonature #100WaysOfTravel Get close to nature with this commemoration of Freedom Park in Imjingak Park. The elevated location offers a panoramic views of the surroundings and if you have time to stay until sunset, you will get to see behind the horizon too. This Freedom Park has been restricted to visitors and cordoned off to cross the bridge. The surrounding area has also been taken care of and landscaping has created to blend in with the surrounding forest. During spring, you can see some of these cherry blossoms trees blooming too. This is a great location for cherry blossoms viewing. #southkorea #seoul #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

Jayu Park, or park of Freedom, has held its name ever since October 3, 1957 when a statue of General McArthur, who led the Incheon Amphibious Landing Operation during the Korean War, was erected at the summit of Mt. Eungbongsan. The park offers spectacular views of downtown Incheon and its surrounding mountains, the port, and the sea. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway
