About

Duryu Park is located in Dalseo-gu, in the center of Daegu. In 1977 the city developed a park of about 500,000 pyeong here.

It offers cultural facilities such as a very large open-air amphitheater, an arts center and a library, sports facilities such as a baseball field, tennis courts and a swimming pool, and memorial sites such as the 2·28 Memorial Tower and a garden of notable figures.

The 83 Tower on the summit of Duryu Mountain is a landmark of Daegu, and its 200 m observatory overlooks the city. The park hosts a cherry blossom festival in spring, has a pool and fountains for cooling off in summer, shows autumn foliage, and has an ice rink in winter.

Duryu Station on Subway Line 2 is about 500 m from the north entrance, and Seongdang Pond at the park's southwest end is about 600 m from Seobu Bus Terminal Station on Line 1.
