  Introduction
  Semiwon is a botanical garden solely focused on lotus flowers. The garden houses the world’s only museum dedicated to showcasing lotus flowers in daily living, cooking, and writing. The 180,000 square-meter park consists of ponds through which water is filtered and purified before flowing back into the Hangang River. The park is most beautiful in summer when the lotus blossoms are in full bloom but is also decorated with seasonal flowers throughout the year. Additional facilities at Semiwon include the Environment Learning Center, Experience Center, and exhibition areas.
