The story
The park sits on the natural lagoon of Cheongchoho and carries the legacy of the 1999 international tourism expo that helped formalize the lakeside as a visitor-friendly civic space.
Behind the signature
From the park, visitors can see why Cheongchoho is Sokcho's central connector: the lake is framed by the East Sea, Seoraksan, Expo Tower, city lights, and everyday downtown life.
Local tip
The park is the wider lakeside area; Cheongchojeong Pavilion and Sokcho Expo Tower are the specific stops within it.
Seasonal note
Spring flowers, summer marina views, fall chrysanthemums, and winter snow each change the mood. Wind off the lake can be sharp in winter.
For travelers
For international visitors, the park is useful because it turns Sokcho's geography into a walkable experience: lake, market, cafe, culture space, and harbor all sit within a compact loop.
