There are six distinctive ecological parks on the riverside of the Nakdonggang River in the west of Busan. The Maekdo Ecological Park is not well-known among these ecological parks, but it’s a well-loved park for its natural beauty. Walking is the best way to look around Maekdo Ecological Park. Since the park is not that big, walking through it slowly will take no more than 1 hour and 30 minutes. Three routes are recommended to the first-time visitors to the Maekdo Ecological Park. The first route to take is the Cherry Blossom Road built on the causeway and the Metasequoia Road below. Along the causeway, large cherry and metasequoia trees grow beautifully, and while cherry blossoms are in full bloom in spring, late summer and autumn is a wonderful time for leisurely strolls. The second route to take is Waterside Trail along the Nakdonggang River. The riverside has walking trails and rest areas about 10 minutes away from the park. Several paths lead right next to the Nakdonggang River, so you can walk while listening to the reeds sway in the wind. The last route to take is a deck road built between the lotus garden and the aquatic botanical garden in the middle of the ecological park. A walk on the deck is a great way to check out the lotus flowers and various aquatic plants.
