Hyowon Park Wolhwawon | Attraction Guide | K-Travel Mate

Wolhwawon is a traditional Chinese garden in Guangdong style located on the west side of Hyowon Park in Gyeonggi-do. It was created following a friendship exchange agreement between Gyeonggi-do and Guangdong Province, China. Construction began on June 15, 2005, and it opened on April 17, 2006. Designed to harmonize buildings and the garden, it reflects the characteristics of traditional Guangdong region gardens. The garden is visible through windows, and the rear garden features an artificial mountain made of soil and a man-made lake. Around the lake are an artificial waterfall and a boat-shaped pavilion. The buildings were constructed using white powder, blue bricks, and wood in the traditional Guangdong style, with Chinese poetry and inscriptions engraved throughout. Wooden, brick, and lime carvings were used at roof joints.
