Ulsan Grand Park
울산대공원
A roughly 3.64-million-square-meter city park with a rose garden, a small zoo, and lakeside trails. The late-May Rose Festival is a major highlight.
Ulsan Grand Park, built with funding from the SK Group, is one of South Korea's largest urban parks. It is divided into an East Gate area and a South Gate area. The South Gate side has a rose garden, a small zoo, a butterfly garden, and a children's play area, while the East Gate side features a lake, lawns, and shaded walking paths. From late May to early June, the Rose Festival showcases hundreds of rose varieties in bloom, making it one of Ulsan's liveliest flower events. Entry is free, though some facilities charge admission. It's about 15 minutes by bus from the city center.
Opening hours
5:00 AM–11:00 PM (facilities about 9:00 AM–6:00 PM)
