Suseongmot Lake
수성못
An urban lake in southeastern Daegu with a lakeside walking trail, swan boats, and a café street. In the evening, residents come to stroll and watch the sunset.
Suseongmot was built as an irrigation reservoir in the 1920s and is now Daegu's most popular urban leisure lake. The lake covers about 220,000 square meters, and the loop trail is about 2 km long. Along the way are cherry trees, weeping willows, and wooden boardwalks. In the evening, the setting sun reflects on the lake and the distant Jungsan hills, creating a beautiful scene. You can rent swan boats or pedal boats on the lake. In summer, musical fountain shows are held on some nights, subject to the current year's schedule. The Suseongmot Café Street by the lake has many scenic cafés and restaurants, and when night falls, the lights reflect on the water, making it a favorite spot for dates and walks. Every autumn, the lake often hosts festivals and light events. A poem monument dedicated to Lee Sang-hwa, a poet from Daegu, also stands by the lake. Entry is free. Getting there: about a 5-minute walk from Suseong Station on Subway Line 3 (monorail), about 20 minutes from downtown. From East Jeongno, a taxi takes about 15 minutes. The lake can be combined in the same afternoon-to-evening outing with the Geumgwangseok Redrawn Road to the east (near Daegu Medical Center Station on Subway Line 2).
