Geochang Changpo Garden

This description was machine-translated from the Korea Tourism Organization's Korean original.

Geochang Changpowon is a large-scale waterside ecological park with a park area of 424,164㎡. It was a submerged area created when Hapcheon Dam was built in 1988, but Geochang-gun established Geochang Changpowon to create an ecological garden that harmonizes with the waterside scenery of the Hwanggang River, a national river, to protect the river's water quality and promote revitalization of the local economy through tourism development. In spring, more than 1 million planted Japanese irises form beautiful colonies; summer is themed around lotus, water lilies, and hydrangeas; autumn around chrysanthemums and autumn foliage; and winter around the tropical plant garden and silver grass and reeds around the retention basin and wetlands, operating distinctive programs for all four seasons.
