Sangju Persimmon Park in winter: Gamrakwon closes at 17:00 and Mondays
Entry and parking are free, with ramps, a wheelchair-accessible lift and toilets; outdoor park access and indoor exhibition hours differ.
As persimmon season transitions into winter, visitors need to distinguish always-open grounds from the indoor Gamrakwon exhibition center.
01
What we're seeing
An always-open outdoor park does not mean the indoor Gamrakwon museum stays open 24 hours; its winter closing time is 17:00.
02
What we still don't know
Actual operations on a specific winter day, charges for particular craft activities, lift maintenance or access and current visitor crowding have not been checked.
