Just had my breath stolen by the gorgeous Oedo-Botania! A mesmerizing marine botanical garden, nestled in the arms of the Hallyeohaesang National Park, it lies tucked away between Tongyeong and Geojedo Island. Over 30 years in the making, what started as a humble private garden has magically transformed the entire island into a European-style garden wonderland, dappled with a myriad of sculptures and statues. You know Spring is truly here when April rolls around and Oedo-Botania erupts into a vibrant riot of blossoming flowers. And trust me, summer strolls are a dream under the refreshing canopy of forested trails! A recent discovery of dinosaur footprints has thrown in a twist of prehistoric charm, making this emerald isle even more intriguing. One thing you can’t miss? The island’s cozy cafe, promising delightful sips and nibbles paired with a stunning panorama of Haegeumgang Island and the cerulean sea beyond. And while this hidden gem is only accessible via a ferry tour, and sans accommodations, the journey and experience is worth every moment. Can’t wait to see you there, fellow adventurers! Your next must-visit address: 17, Oedo-gil, Geoje-si, Gyeongsangnam-do 🌸🦕🍃 #oedobotania #botanicalgarden #oedo #botania #southkorea #geoje #geojeisland
