Naksan Park was founded in 2002 to preserve the remaining green spaces after much of the mountain was demolished during the Japanese Occupation. There are a range of facilities for visitors including an exhibition hall, a hexagonal pavilion, a senior citizens' center, and sports facilities including badminton and basketball courts and several squares. Despite its modest scale, with a height of just over 100 meters, Naksan was one of the four guardian mountains, along with Bugaksan, Namsan, and Inwangsan, of the capital of the Joseon Dynasty. It took its name from the Korean words, nakta (camel) and san (mountain). In the past, the mountain was popular with yangban, the ruling class of the Joseon Dynasty, who came to see its famous sunset view. In Naksan Park, visitors can follow the walking trail along the Seoul Seonggwak (fortress wall) stretching about 2 km from Hyehwamun to Heunginjimun, the East Gate of Seoul.

nice park in Seoul
Nice easy park to get to, the weather wasn't great when I went, so the view was not as good. There were a few people who also went here and walked with their dogs or used the exercise equipment.
