Seoul Forest Park / Korea Times file

Are you in Seoul and planning an excursion to beat the scorching summer heat?

Seoul Forest Park

might be one of the best options. The sprawling tree-clad public park in the heart of Seoul will present you with a chance to cool down and inhale fresh air filtered by 40,000 trees. Multiple layers of trees will completely wipe out external noise -- even the voice of discomfort in your mind -- so you will be able to enjoy ultimate relaxation in the undisrupted tranquility and serenity of nature.

Good restaurants dotted near the park are another factor spicing up the venue.

The Korea Times has formed a partnership with three restaurants near the park.
