Pocheon Herb Island

The worst place I have been in Korea. The place is very poorly maintained. Although there are many theme areas. But really poor maintained and is so rundown. There is only one restaurant. I ordered the beef rib soup. The worst I ever have. Cold, 2big ribs with not much meat. Cost 17,000. I think I prefer to eat back in Seoul! And self-service There are a few cafes. Maybe it will be better to have some like grab in the cafes or if you wanna be there, eat before you go. The only place that was full of humans, was the pink theme pink mully grass with an artificially colored shocking pink sand slope. Anyway, the ticket and all the pay pay pay inside this area, simply not worth it. But because you want to post on social media coz’ of the shocking pink zone, Maybe… The management of this place should rethink how they should manage this place properly.

We were in the area and had nothing to do so we stopped by here in Autumn 2023. The big attraction was a field of pink muhly which is a pink coloured grass. That part is quite beautiful, and possibly worth the 12,000 Won entry fee. Otherwise the gardens are not that impressive and overall theme is odd. We had our kids and there was just so many ways they squeeze more money out of you. Despite the entrance fee, everything else costs a lot of extra money and is not that great (big swing, sand slide that takes 1 second etc.)

We didn't know what to expect, but we were afraid of getting spirited away in this phantasmagorical nightmare filled with dilapidated sculptures, labyrinthine paths and exhibits not found on the map. Bizarre, scary. Lightly dystopian. The bibimbap at the café was very good though.

An interesting place to go if you have time to explore the area. Be sure to go to the spa and get some DIY projects. A good spot for families. Go in the evening so you can enjoy the lights more. The bakery and botanical garden was a huge favorite for our group.

I definitely don't recommend it; it's a typical commercial place designed to lure tourists. There's barely any herbs, everything is dirty and neglected, and the mound of pink plastic sand with artificial Christmas trees looks very tacky. …
