Course Description
| This course consists of the best universal tourism facilities selected by the Seoul Tourism Organization in 2023. Universal tourism facilities cater to all individuals, including those with disabilities, by ensuring convenient access for everyone. |
Nowon, located in the northeastern part of Seoul, seamlessly integrates with the natural surroundings in the city center. In particular, the Buramsan Healing Town is a treasure in Nowon, offering a peaceful haven for all locals to unwind and de-stress. It is a garden-culture complex community that provides various home gardening programs to bring nature closer to home.
One of the highlights of Buramsan Healing Town is the barrier-free wooden pathway that allows wheelchair users and parents with strollers to reach the observation deck easily. The observation deck provides stunning views of Buramsan Mountain, with also an eco-friendly playground for kids, making it perfect for family excursions. Families with young children can have a stress-free experience at the facility thanks to the nursing room for infants and toddlers.
After exploring Buramsan Healing Town all day, you can satisfy your hunger at Nana Curry House, known for its flavorful curries made with a range of spices, or Myeong Ryun Jinsa Galbi, for a filling all-you-can-eat rib dinner. It will offer a perfect combination of enjoying nature in the heart of the city and savoring delicious meals to complete the day. For a relaxing experience in nature, visit the Nature Nowon Course!
Buramsan Healing Town is a healing space with a variety of activities to enjoy throughout the four seasons. The wooden decked circular walkway, azalea garden, and elevator observatory provide opportunities to appreciate different natural sceneries, while the butterfly garden, ecological learning center, forest therapy center, and children’s forest experience center offer learning programs on ecosystem flora and fauna. In the butterfly garden, you can enjoy butterflies flying all year round in the butterfly greenhouse.
