As the cool autumn breeze sets in, it's a perfect time to enjoy outdoor walks and travel. During my trip to Ulsan, I decided to visit Taehwa River National Garden, a place where I could relax and immerse myself in nature.
Taehwa River National Garden is one of Ulsan's top travel destinations, offering vast gardens and walking paths perfect for enjoying the natural surroundings. The pleasant weather attracted many visitors, including families and couples enjoying their outings.
Besides walking, there was a unique way to explore the garden: riding the Ulsan carriage. I decided to try it out, as it also included a guide's narration.
Before visiting the garden, I wondered how to best explore its vastness. Riding the Ulsan carriage offered a different kind of fun compared to walking. While riding, I could appreciate the scenery and listen to the guide share fascinating stories about Ulsan and the garden.
The price for the Ulsan carriage was 10,000 KRW per adult. Ulsan residents could enjoy a discounted fare of 5,000 KRW, but since I am not a resident, I paid the regular price. Reservations could be made on-site or in advance via Naver. It’s advisable to check the reservation details based on your visit date and time.
A ride lasts about 40 minutes, with departures every 20 minutes. Considering the time spent exploring and listening to the guide, it was a well-timed experience for those wanting a special visit to the garden.
As the ride began, the guide shared stories about Taehwa River National Garden. I appreciated that the journey wasn’t just about following a set path; I could see the surroundings and learn various insights along the way. Listening to the guide made me notice details I might have overlooked, changing how I perceived the same location.
One memorable story was about the bamboo forest in the garden. It was fascinating to learn that this bamboo forest has been a part of the landscape for a long time and is now one of the garden's iconic features.
Riding the carriage allowed me to leisurely observe places I might have missed while walking. The garden was much larger than I expected, with new sights appearing as I moved along, making the 40 minutes feel just right.
The bamboo forest is a must-see attraction within the garden. The sight of the wind passing through the tall bamboo was refreshing, and it was delightful to experience such nature close to the city.
One interesting fact shared by the guide was that bamboo is not a tree but a type of grass. Despite its name, it belongs to the grass family, which was a surprising revelation.
The Ulsan carriage ride reminded me how expansive Taehwa River National Garden is. Initially, I thought I could quickly see the main sights, but there were continuously new areas to explore. Walking through the garden would take more time than I anticipated, but riding the carriage allowed me to comfortably enjoy the overall atmosphere.
The guide mentioned that the 2028 Ulsan International Garden Expo is set to take place here, with preparations underway and various construction projects happening throughout the garden. I look forward to seeing how the garden will change after the expo.
Having experienced the Ulsan carriage, I believe it's a unique way to enjoy Taehwa River National Garden. It offers more than just transportation; it enhances your understanding of the destination while enjoying the scenery. If you're traveling with family or children, riding the carriage can be a comfortable way to explore the garden. However, to fully appreciate the garden's charm, I recommend getting off at spots you like to stroll around.
Taehwa River National Garden is a beautiful place to enjoy nature, especially in the refreshing autumn weather. With the added experience of riding the Ulsan carriage, I created wonderful memories beyond a typical stroll.
If you're planning a trip to Ulsan, be sure to visit Taehwa River National Garden and consider trying the Ulsan carriage for a more enjoyable experience.
