Naksan Park is named for its shape which resembles a camel's back. The park offers spectacular view of Daehangno from its peak and is a great spot to enjoy beautiful sunset or night view of the city.
Naksan Park is famous as the filming location for popular Korean TV dramas like the SBS's The Inheritors (/The Heirs) by leading actors Lee Min-Ho and Park Shin-Hye and My Lovely Girl.
The Joseon royal family enjoyed the natural beauty of the granite mountain.
However, hasty manner of urban planning resulted in the demolition of most parts of the mountain during the Japanese colonial period.
In an effort to save the remaining green belts, Naksan was designated as a park on June 10, 2002.
From Naksan Park, visitors can walk along the Seoul City Wall (part of Naksan Mountain Trail) to Ihwa Mural Village and continue on the easy wall path downhill to Dongdaemun.
