El Parque Hyochang, de 122.245 metros cuadrados, está situado en Hyochang-dong y Cheongpa 2-dong. Es un lugar histórico, que antes contenía varias tumbas reales, era conocida en aquel entonces como Hyochangwon. Las tumbas, que estaban originalmente en Hyochangwon, son del príncipe heredero Munhyo (primogénito del rey Jeongjo, que fue muerto con solo 5 años), la Noble Consorte Real Uibin del Clan Seong (concubina real del rey Jeongjo y madre del príncipe heredero Munhyo), la Noble Cosorte Real Sugui del Clan Park (concubina real del rey Sunjo), y su hija, la princesa Yeongon. Las tumbas reales fueron trasladadas al cementerio real Seosamreung durante el período colonial japonés. En 1924, el Imperio Japonés implementó la renovación de Hyochangwon para convertirlo en un parque, y en 1940, el gobernador general japonés, oficialmente, designó este sitio como un parque.
En la actualidad, algunos de los grandes líderes coreanos están enterrados en el Parque Hyochang. La mayoría de los restos son de activistas independentistas frente a Japón, incluyendo Yoon Bong-gil, Lee Bong-chang y Baek Jeong-gi, cuyas sepulturas son colectivamente conocidas como “Samuisa-myo” (tumbas de los tres mártires). Una estatua de Lee Bong-chang se levanta en el cementerio. Otros mártires patriotas que están inhumados en el parque son Kim Koo y algunos de los personajes importantes del Gobierno Provisional de Corea, tales como Lee Dong-nyeong, Cha I-seok y Cho Seong-hwan. El santuario ancestral, llamado Uiyeolsa, se encuentra al lado de la puerta principal y cuenta con los retratos de los difuntos independentistas.

Wan Chai is a Chinese restaurant with a name meaning "spicy," and is a must-visit for those who love spicy food. Rather than the original spicy Chinese Sichuan cuisine, a small amount of Korean spices have been added to create even better tasting dishes.
The most popular item on the menu is a large plate of reddened mussels known as the Extra Spicy Stir-fried Mussels. The dish is a mixture of spicy red peppers, garlic, and spicy sauce, stir-fried to perfection. Many customers also come in for the gul jjamppong (spicy noodle soup with oysters). Even the jajangmyeon (noodles in black bean sauce) tastes great here, with clean-tasting black soy bean sauce. Finally, for dessert, lychee is served, a unique treat to finish off a meal at Wan Chai.

and allows guests to chow down on some fried chicken alongside their meals. They
even reproduced the famous chicken comic character as a mascot of sorts. Also,

taste and set menu items. Also, while waiting for your food to be served, you can try
your hand at the board game Othello, one of which is placed at every table.
