Botanical Garden·Spacious, Natural, Family Oriented
Hanbat Arboretum serves as a lush green lung for Daejeon, uniquely divided into distinct East and West gardens. The West Garden offers a more natural, forested experience with shaded walking paths ideal for quiet contemplation. In contrast, the East Garden is home to vibrant flower beds, a large pond, a tropical plant conservatory, and an insectarium. The central plaza acts as a bridge between the two, providing a lively space for cycling with rentals readily available. It is a popular spot for picnics, especially during the cherry blossom season in April. With convenient amenities like a coffee shop, convenience store, and restaurant, it provides a complete outdoor experience with no entrance fee.
