Gungnamji Park

It's been a week since we moved here in Buyeo. Today we're able to visit one of the tourist spot, Gungnamji Park. It is known for it's pond with an islet in the middle, where the pagoda and bridge built centuries ago (A.D. 643). Gungnamji which expressed an Immortal thought was one of the earliest lakes built in the garden in Korea.

It is another interesting place in this small town, lots of tourist come to visit and see this thousand years old pagoda. The park itself is very nice, colorful flowers are everywhere. Big lotus flowers are on it's peak, pretty and fragrance. Gungnamji Lotus Flower Festival is one of the various events here in Buyeo. Another thing that attract attention is the giant swing! it's so big that you feel like your flying once you ride - just be patient for your turn because everybody want's to ride this swing. There's also a monument of the Gen Gyeback and 5,000 militaries, I can't find much information about this monument but we're guessing that this is in honor for those who fight the war during Samguk Sagi (Three Kingdoms History).

You can view our pictures taken at the park on our website.
