Destination briefing
Why travelers stop here
Umyeonsan is a 293m high mountain that can be easily climbed from the city center in areas such as Umyeon-dong, Seocho-dong, and Yangjae-dong in Seocho-gu. The mountain was named Umyeonsan because its shape resembles a cow dozing off. On the southern foot of Umyeonsan, there are dolmens from the Bronze Age, indicating that this area has been a living ground for our ancestors since ancient times. Umyeonsan is designated and managed as a Seoul city natural park. Walking trails and hiking trails are combined with mineral springs such as Taegeuk, Yujeomsa, and Seocho Yaksu Spring, as well as cultural heritage sites and temples such as Daeseongsa, the tomb of Jeong Do-jeon, the shrine of Yi Jon-oh, and the Seoul Arts Center, providing a cozy resting place for urban residents. It is designed to allow visitors to enjoy nature as it is, rather than being a neatly organized learning center. Address: San 34-1, Umyeon-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul
