Any holiday needs a fix of gardens and parks. Seoul Grand Park has it all, a zoo, botanical garden, camping sites, themed gardens and it is close to many other museums and attractions. It’s understandable that not everyone likes zoos or the idea of it, but South Korea has always put the animal’s interests first, allowing freedom of movement and making sure they’re happy. There’s plenty to do for anyone looking for a break from the ‘concrete city’ and so much to see around the area, even go hiking (see ‘Outdoor Exercise’ post)!
