Ye's Park
Ye’s Park was opened in April 2018 to promote Icheon’s unique cultural content to the world. Driving there from Seoul’s Gangnam-gu District takes under an hour. The “Ye” in the name means “skill” or “talent” in Korean, indicating pride in art.
Surrounded by mountains and fields, an area covering 406,597 m2 forms a village with more than 221 craft workshops for ceramics, paintings, vintage furniture, sculptures, wooden crafts, fabric, lacquerware and other specialties. Each shop has its own identity and walking through them makes one feel like he or she is at a gigantic art gallery.
