Hallim Park is strongly scented with exotic sentiment. The plants are
divided into 16 sectors including the Tropical Botanical Garden, Washingtonia Palm Garden, Foliage
Plant Garden, Palm Tree Garden, and Kiwi Fruit Garden. The most famous tourist sites in Hallim Park
are Hyeopjae Cave and Ssangyong Cave. In addition,
a folk village, children's amusement park, and outdoor resort facilities make it a place enjoyable
for both children and adults.
This unusual formation resulted from the roots of two nettle trees comingling. It was discovered and
mended by Kim Choon Hong while working on road construction in 1992. Made by the roots of two trees
naturally united as one, it has come to symbolize a married couple's hundred years of happy life
together. Lovers and married couples flock here in droves to have their pictures taken next to it.Hyeopjae Cave and Ssangyong Caves Hyeopjae Cave (designated Natural Monument #236) is one of several caves located in Hallim Park. Unlike most lava tubes, this cave contains a number of stalagtites and stalagmites. Additionally, Ssangyong Cave is the only two-dimensional cave in the world (a cave that has another cave inside). Ssangyong means "double dragon."
