Opened in
1992, the big grass field and the refreshing pond serve as the
perfect combination as a resting park. In the middle of
the park there is a pond with willow buds, benches and grass
surrounding it. The willow buds are more beautiful when they dance
in the wind. There are many kinds of birds to make you
comfortable. There are picnic tables and chairs for your outdoor
picnics. This location of the Yongsan Family Park was a very
important place in the past. It had once been the base of
the service corps during the Imjin war. During the Korean
War the American command post and a golf course was put up
here. And it finally became public space for the citizens
when it became this park. In 2005 a national museum is to
be constructed here.
