Ilwol Arboretum
일월수목원
A city arboretum opened in 2023, with a large glass greenhouse and several themed gardens, next to Ilwol Lake Park.
Ilwol Arboretum lies beside Ilwol Lake in western Suwon. It consists of an exhibition greenhouse, a wetland garden, an herb garden and more. The greenhouse grows tropical and Mediterranean plants, so there is greenery year-round, and the flowering and autumn-leaf seasons are great for photos. Admission is about 2,000 won. It is generally open 9:00–18:00 and closed on Mondays, so checking the official website is recommended. You can stroll through the adjacent Ilwol Lake Park as part of the same visit. From Seongkyunkwan University Station, it is about 10 minutes by bus.
