Basic information and history of Bangokji

  • Bangokji is a beautiful reservoir located at 246, Bangok-ri, Namsan-myeon, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do.
  • It was first created during the reign of King Yeongjo of the Joseon Dynasty in the mid-18th century, and later expanded in 1903, including an enlargement of the embankment.
  • Its original name was Oebanji, but it is now called Bangokji after the name of the village.
  • It currently has a circumference of about 1 km, a water surface area of 2 ha, and a storage capacity of about 39,300 tons.

Things to see and natural scenery

  • Around the reservoir, you will find 10 to 20 magnificent king willows that are 200 to 300 years old.
  • There is about 150 m of dirt path and wooden deck trail beneath the willows, making it a wonderful place to walk with your kids.
  • In spring, peach blossoms bloom beautifully beside the willows, and in summer, the area is filled with lush greenery.
  • The peaceful waterside scenery combined with the trees makes this one of the country's standout photo spots.

Amenities and visitor information

  • Admission and parking are both free.
  • The parking lot is spacious, and there are also accessible parking spaces and electric vehicle charging spaces.
  • Around the reservoir, you will find public restrooms, walking trails, rest areas, and nearby cafes.

Special memories with your kids

  • Bangokji has appeared as a filming location for many dramas and movies, so walking around while looking for familiar scenes with your kids can make the visit even more fun.
  • With its quiet rural atmosphere, peaceful lake, and old trees, it is a lovely place to show your kids the beauty of nature.
  • Because you can enjoy a variety of scenery throughout the seasons, it is recommended not only for family outings, but also for photography and nature experiences.

Best times to visit and things to keep in mind

  • In April, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, and from late spring to summer, the green king willows are especially beautiful.
  • On weekends and during blossom season, there can be many visitors, so the parking lot may get crowded. You may want to consider visiting on a weekday.
  • When walking near the lake and trees, please make sure your kids do not go too close to the water.

"Bangokji is one of Gyeongsan's signature attractions, where nature and people come together beautifully. Each view you share with your kids here can become a special memory."
