Enter towards Hesse Garden P2, and if you come all the way inside, you can see the Nature Dog banner and building entrance.
A paradise for dogs! >_< I visited Nature Dog, a large dog cafe with a dog park and dog swimming pool, located in Yangju, Gyeonggi-do.
After entering the Hesse Garden P2 parking lot, if you come straight inside, there was space to park right in front of the Nature Dog entrance.
As I approached the entrance, the Nature Dog information was clearly written on the fence.
A map of Nature Dog was also drawn. Just by glancing at it, it looks very spacious, right? >0<
Upon entering inside, you are greeted by a counter where you can order admission tickets, additional facility usage fees, and cafe menu items.

For our group, the admission fee was ₩40,000 for 4 adults and 1 small dog on a weekday. Since we hadn't had lunch, we decided to cook Han River ramen. lol
In addition to ramen, they also sold various snacks, beer, drinks, and ice cream, and you could also purchase dog treats.
In the space with the counter, products from the dog outdoor brand, Wilder Dog, were displayed.
They also sold dog supplies such as collars, leashes, harnesses, and toys.
Right next to it, the self-service ramen machine had ramen cooking instructions clearly written, and you could cook 4 at once.
We ordered 5 different kinds! lol I personally want to buy one of these machines for my house! >_< It adjusts the water amount and the noodles are just right. It's so great because it's done after boiling for about 3 minutes. Hehe.
Now, let's go through this glass door and enter the space right in front.
There is a dining area with cool air conditioning.
Our Dubu waits quietly while we eat...☆ But as soon as he saw friends coming and going, he started whining to go out too! ㅠ-ㅠ Not yet! ㅎ0ㅎ
After eating quickly, I came out to the deck rest area right in front, which led to the stage playground and party playground, and there were poop bags hanging everywhere! The deck playground is nice and spacious, but it was too sunny, so we immediately moved to the forest playground.
On the way, I saw a dog photo zone with cafe employee costumes! LOL An apron was also prepared >_< So cute!
There is a door in the middle of the counter building and the dining area, and if you open that door, a wonderful forest appears with a swimming pool, valley playground, forest, and garden playground.
For reference, the garden playground on the left was a space that small dogs under 6kg could use, and the forest playground on the right was a space that dogs over 8kg on weekdays and 6kg on weekends could use.
The garden playground for small dogs also had a mini swimming pool.
Between the garden playground and the forest playground, 200m of underground bedrock water that you can drink was prepared along with dog water bowls.
This space is the main playground of Nature Dog, a large dog cafe in Yangju. It was slightly hilly, and when I went up, I saw that tables and benches were well prepared everywhere.
Dubu... ^_^ Where are you going! Hehe. When I chased after him,
I saw the entrance to the valley playground and swimming pool, as well as a guardian bathroom and an outdoor restroom. And when I glanced at the valley swimming pool over the fence,
Ooh~! >0< Such a pretty swimming pool! Hehe. For reference, the sign said:
Cold Nature: Valley Swimming Pool
It's a swimming pool that resembles a Finnish lake.
When there is a lot of water, it uses Songchu Valley water, and when there is a drought, it uses underground bedrock water.
The floating things are leaves and branches that fell this morning, so please use it with confidence.
Frogs sometimes jump in together.
Monday is cleaning day.
Please pay the swimming pool usage fee before using.
You must wear a bracelet to enter the swimming pool!
When you enter Nature Dog and pay the admission fee, the staff first asks if you will be using the swimming pool! Hehe.
While playing, I captured the scene of babies of similar sizes meeting and greeting each other! >_< So cute! ㅠㅠ Hehehehehe
The cafe size is 4000 pyeong (approximately 3.3 acres), so it's really big! Lol. Big dogs were flying around. It was really, really wide.
My younger sibling visited once on the weekend with a friend's dog, and they said that half of this large playground is filled with dogs on the weekends! Lol. It was a complete hot spot for dogs.
Our Ghana-di, who had been running around excitedly, had his tongue hanging out a lot! ★ He relieved a lot of stress! Hehe.
Who was snoring in the car on the way home? When I turned around, it was our Ghana-di... snoring sound... ^_^ Lolololololol. We quietly tore off the bracelet. Lololololololol.
Nature Dog in Yangju, Gyeonggi-do, is a huge dog cafe that can be called a paradise for dogs, with a huge dog park, dog swimming pool, dog supplies, and dog treats!
It was good for both dogs and families to relax and heal in nature.
I recommend it to dog lovers! >_<
