Nakseongdae Park — General Gang Gam-chan Historic Park

Historic park in Gwanak-gu honoring Goryeo-era commander Gang Gam-chan. Visitors can explore the Anguksa shrine area and historical memorials including the Nakseongdae three-story pagoda. It is the main anchor for the October 16–18, 2026 Gwanak Gang Gam-chan Festival, but the park, indoor exhibition spaces and individual festival attractions have separate access rules.

Why it matters now

The October 16–18 festival takes place in and around this park. General park access is free and listed as 24-hour, but special event route restrictions, crowds, paid experiences and indoor opening hours must be checked separately.

Why go

A low-cost cultural walk in southwest Seoul that pairs history and open-air parkland, and a useful point of orientation for festival visitors.
