Public Transportation is the Answer! Getting to Haneul Park
Parking space is limited, so using public transportation is the wiser choice.
It's about a 10-minute walk from World Cup Stadium Station (Exit 1),
or you can get off at Mapo-gu Office Station and head towards Haneul Park.
If you're driving, we recommend the Nanjicheon Park or Peace Park parking lots.
However, it can get crowded on weekends, so we recommend arriving early in the morning or visiting on a weekday.
Smart Ways to Ride the Maengkongi Train
If you don't feel like walking, be sure to use the 'Maengkongi Train'.
You can board at the ticket booth near Nanjicheon Park, and the fare is ₩3,000 for a round trip for adults.
If the line is long, have one person wait in line while the other buys tickets!
This teamwork can save you time.

What's the Status of the Eulalia and Autumn Flowers Now?
As of October 16, 2025, the eulalia is about 70% in bloom.
The most beautiful period is expected to be after October 20th.
In addition to eulalia, kochia and cosmos are also about to reach full bloom.
The autumn flower garden, with its pink and red hues, is truly breathtaking. 
From the top of Haneul Park, a view overlooking Bukhansan Mountain and the Han River awaits you.
Photo Zone Location Guide! Get Your Best Shot Here
Various themed photo zones are set up throughout the park.
Heart photo zone, large frame photo zone, Squid Game homage zone, etc!
The most popular place is the 'Sunset Tunnel'. 
If you visit during sunset hours (5:30 PM - 6:30 PM),
the combination of the red-tinted sky and the silver eulalia creates a fantastic landscape.
There may be queues at each photo zone, so it's a good idea to arrive with plenty of time before sunset.
Enjoy a Special Night at Haneul Park
When the sun goes down, Haneul Park transforms into another charm.
The landscape lighting subtly illuminates the eulalia fields,
and the busking music makes the night air even more emotional.
A perfect date spot,
Relax and take a walk in nature and end your day.
It is rare to find a place where you can spend such a romantic autumn night in the heart of Seoul.
Let's Prepare Wisely for the Autumn Festival
You'll need a few things to fully enjoy the Eulalia Festival.
Comfortable sneakers are a must!
And bring a warm jacket, as the temperature drops sharply at night. 
Also, the paths between the eulalia fields are narrow and uneven, so it may be difficult to move with strollers or wheelchairs.
Please consider this when visiting with family.
