Hongneung Arboretum has beautiful scenery for every season
The garden of broadleaf trees behind the main building is the one that shows the change of season most dramatically
The hundreds of broadleaf trees appear their best in autumn
The arboretum is good for nature education walk because of the many nameplates offering information on the species and characteristics of each tree
There are also many things to see at the Forest Science Exhibition Hall which provides visitors with knowledge and information of the value of forests, forestry, and the forest industry
The building itself is an exhibition because the hall is made of Korean wood
