Expo Park

On Sunday, Juli and I walked to Expo Park. The park was built to host the Science Exposition in 1993.The Expo bridge leads to the park and looks great when lit up at night.

There are lots of quirky little statues along the riverbank, including these swans!

There is an observatory in the park where you can see views over the park and parts of Daejeon.

The park also houses Kumdori Land, a mini theme park. We had a laugh riding the 2 rollercoasters!

I suppose the park is nearly 20 years old and it is almost the middle of winter, but it almost had the faded glory type feel of an old British seaside resort. Many attractions were closed down and it wasn't clear whether it was permanent or just for the winter. I'll have to pay Expo Park another visit next year. I noticed an outdoor pool complex which would be great for cooling down on a hot summer's day!
