Gwangjuho (Gwangju Lake) Ecological Park is an ecological park developed on a 184,948m² site near the lakeshore, consisting of theme areas such as a natural observation center, nature learning site, lawn resting plaza, and waterside wetlands. Located about 30 minutes from downtown Gwangju, it is easily accessible for citizens and has been used as a natural ecology learning site for children and a resting space for citizens since its opening in March 2006. The park gives an overall quiet and cool feeling, and unless it is cold weather, visitors can directly observe ecological materials of flowers, animals, and plants. There are 170,000 wildflowers of various colors planted in themed flower zones, including azaleas, forsythias, nandinas, roses, rhododendrons, and hydrangeas, as well as a deciduous plant garden, waterside observation deck, rock garden, and about 3,000 trees such as Styrax japonicus, quince trees, Euonymus japonicus, and maple trees. Additionally, various birds hatch and grow in the marsh area. Wooden stairs have been built between metasequoia-lined streets.
