Ten Gardens, All Different

Farm Kamille, named after the English word “farm” and the German word for chamomile, “Kamiille”, is an appropriate name for a farm that seeks to grow herbs and their fragrance. It was established based on four principles of horticulture, communication with nature through caring for plants; ornamentation, the cultivation of inner beauty; utilization, for the betterment of human life; and art, to be experienced through five senses. Farm Kamille is a place where one can lose oneself in the beautiful view of the seasons and the fragrance of flowers. One feels that one is stepping into the land of fairy-tales. Gardens in Farm Kamille are organized according to different themes. There are ten gardens in total. Le Petit Prince Garden is organized around the beauty of childhood fantasy, with handsome water fountains, sculptures, and flowers. Rose Garden is a stone-walled garden with nearly 60 species of roses planted on each step. Roses in Rose Garden begin to bloom from June onward, and some stay in bloom until the first snow.

Cake Garden looks like a slice of cake, filled with colorful flowers that bloom from spring to fall. Lavender Garden is home to lavender, also known as “Mary’s Drying Plant”, and thyme, also known as a “plant with a hundred-mile scent”. It is often thought to be the most beautiful place in Farm Kamille. Chamomile & Sage Garden is home to chamomile, a popular ingredient in herbal tea and cosmetics, and sage, which bloom with intense violet in fall. The Cake Garden is home to the filming site of the drama , specifically the cafe building. In reality, the building is used as a pension. The observatory on the Windy Hill is the most famous building in Farm Kamille. It has a wonderful view of the nearby Mongsanpo Beach and the sea. But make sure not to miss the other photo zones located throughout the area as well. Animal Garden is located to the back of the Wetland Botanical Garden. In it, you can observe and feed donkeys, rabbits, goats, mini- pigs, and turkey.

Experience Programs organized through Herbs

Once the kids have had fun interacting with animals in the Animal Garden, it is time for the grown-ups to have their fun. The Herb Shop displays rows and rows of herbs and wildflowers.
