Daewangam Park
대왕암공원
A headland park where century-old pine forest meets oddly shaped sea-carved rocks. It has a 303 m sea suspension bridge and sits beside Ilsan Beach.
Daewangam Park occupies a headland in Ulsan's Dong-gu district. Legend says that the queen of King Munmu of Silla turned into a guardian dragon after her death and sank beneath the rocks here. A pine forest path of about 600 m leads across an iron bridge to the reddish-brown Daewangam Rock, where waves crash over the reefs and the views are spectacular. The 303 m sea suspension bridge opened in 2021 and is free to cross. The park is closed on Mondays. To the north, Ilsan Beach is a popular seaside spot in central Ulsan. A bus from the city centre takes about 40 minutes, and the park can be combined with the Ulsan Bridge Observatory.
Opening hours
Park open all day; suspension bridge 09:00–18:00, closed Mondays
