Machine-translated from Korean. Show original
Kensington French Garden is the largest French-style garden in Korea, covering an area of approximately 200,000 square meters. It is renowned for being a faithful replica of the "Villard de Honnecourt Embroidery Garden" located in Saint-André-les-Deux-Églises, France. Set against the backdrop of the stunning scenery of Odaesan Mountain, which stands at an altitude of 700 meters, the garden features a diverse array of plants and is divided into 10 themed gardens, including an Oriental Garden, a Vegetable Garden, and a Chef's Garden, creating a pleasant environment for strolling. The embroidery garden expresses the changing emotions of love through four distinct patterns. In addition to the four-season flower garden, which is filled with perennial plants that bloom throughout the year, and the Chef's Garden, which provides fresh ingredients, the garden also features unique landscapes that are a feast for the eyes. There are also tree-lined paths perfect for families and couples to walk along, as well as a path lined with giant oak trees where children can play freely, and a Zelkova tree path that offers a peaceful escape from the city for quiet contemplation. Furthermore, the paths made from 100% natural Masato soil, sourced from Jinbu-myeon in Pyeongchang, are ideal for barefoot walks.
