< Forest Environment Research Institute > where you can see the magnificent Metasequoia Road

This is the “Gyeongsangbuk-do Forest Environment Research Institute,” a hot place in Gyeongju these days. It is also called Gyeongju Millennium Forest Garden and is a famous place that attracts the most visitors in summer and fall. In summer, you can see the green metasequoia road, and in fall, you can see the charming metasequoia road with fallen leaves. [Forest Environment Research Institute] It was a research institute for forest protection such as investigating forest environments, propagating and preserving natural monument successor trees, and controlling pests and diseases. After that, it was transformed into a forest park open to the public in 2023. It is the fifth national garden in Korea and the first in Gyeongbuk to be created and managed by a local government. 📌 Location : 366-4 Tongil-ro, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do ⏰ Operating hours : (March - October) 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM daily (November - February) 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM daily 📞 Phone number : 054-778-3840 🔅Free admission, and you can have a more detailed and deeper understanding of the forest through the forest interpretation program.

Among them, the single-log bridge across the Metasequoia Road is by far the best. You have to wait in a long line to take a picture here. It is such a popular photo zone. 🔅 I recommend visiting on a weekday rather than a weekend. On weekends, the parking lot is almost full and cars are parked on the side of the road, so there are parking problems. If you go on a weekend, I recommend visiting early in the morning if possible. ‼️ ________ Since many people visit even though it has not been open for long, it must be a beautiful space. ☺️ I think it will be half people and half trees on the weekend. In particular, there were some tourists who came in groups!! I hope you visit after being careful. 🥹 #Gyeongju Millennium Forest Garden #Gyeongju Travel #Domestic Travel
