Beartree Park — Korea

Beartree Park is a beautiful natural space in Sejong founded by entrepreneur Lee Jae-yeon. The park first started out as a private garden cared for by Lee personally. The garden was turned into a park and opened to the public in 2009, boasting a beautiful collection of flora and fauna. Indoor and outdoor botanical gardens, junipers, wild flowers, irises, and bonsais are tended with the utmost of care. In addition to the magnificent gardens, visitors can also observe family of deer, bears, birds, and more.
