Halmikkot Hanjae Park

Korean name할미꽃 한재공원

Machine-translated from Korean. Show original

Located in Hoejin-myeon, Jangheung-gun, surrounded by the South Sea, Hanjae Park is home to the largest natural cluster of *Halmi-kkot* (a type of flowering plant), where clusters of dark red flowers with fluffy, cotton-like petals thrive. These naturally occurring *Halmi-kkot* typically begin to sprout in early March, reaching their peak bloom from late March to mid-April, offering a beautiful spring landscape. The *Halmi-kkot* is characterized by its drooping flower stems, and up close, the combination of the purple flowers and soft, fluffy petals creates a unique beauty. This area is a designated special management zone, and unauthorized collection of *Halmi-kkot* is subject to penalties, so visitors should only admire them visually. Furthermore, the park is known as a filming location for the Korean film "Cheonnyeonhak" (The Millennium Falcon), directed by the renowned filmmaker Im Kwon-taek, and from the park's summit, visitors can enjoy stunning views of the Dadohae Sea.
