Seoul’s Western Parks and Leisure Center is launching a range of garden-themed cultural programs at World Cup Park, Seonyudo Park and Boramae Park, offering activities from drawing classes to expert lectures and family gardening experiences.

At World Cup Park, the Garden Drawing program will run in June and July, inviting participants to sketch gardens, landscapes and plant life under the guidance of professional instructors. The seasonal program includes six weeks of classes, with 20 participants accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.

Seonyudo Park will host Gardener’s Walk in September, a special lecture and walking program featuring landscape experts exploring the design, ecological value and history of the park.

Boramae Park’s Garden Culture Center will offer year-round programs including children’s gardening classes, horticulture workshops for adults, family gardening sessions, plant consultations and guided garden tours.

Applications for most programs open at 10 a.m. on the 25th of each month through Seoul’s public reservation website.
