  • Inheon Market near Nakseongdae Station — neighborhood traditional market with snack stalls, fried chicken and butcher-restaurants

Tip

  • The park is about a 15-minute walk from Nakseongdae Station Exit 4 — or take a local bus a couple of stops. It connects to the Seoul Dulle-gil trail toward Gwanaksan.
  • The Gwanak Gang Gam-chan Festival fills the park each October (2025: Oct 17–19) with a Goryeo-style market of local food stalls.
