Flowers at Seoul Grand Park

(Seoul Metropolitan Government)

As the summer heat intensifies, Seoul Grand Park is bursting into color with seasonal flowers, offering visitors a refreshing escape into nature.

From lilies and hydrangeas to crepe myrtles and pink fireweeds, the park’s walking paths and themed gardens have transformed into vibrant floral corridors.

Hydrangeas now dominate the landscape, with white and pink blossoms in full bloom and shades of lime, violet, and sky blue expected to follow through late July.

Along forest trails and open gardens, visitors can also spot vivid displays of Liatris, rudbeckias, begonias, and petunias, adding layers of color beneath the park’s deep summer foliage.

The garden continues to evolve week by week, with hibiscus and large-blossom hibiscus set to bloom in August, followed by the long-lasting crape myrtle, expected to flower for over 100 days.
