I think many people enjoy watching trees change beautifully depending on the season. Therefore, majors related to trees are always popular at each university. However, even if you have studied trees only in books, you may not get a real sense of it unless you see the various trees in person. I think you can gain a deeper understanding of trees by actually looking at various trees.
However, as you walk along the road, it will not seem like there are many different types of trees, so where can you see so many trees? So this time, I would like to introduce Daegu Arboretum located in Daegu. This is recommended as one of the good tourist destinations when visiting Daegu, and I think it will be a very interesting place for those who like trees.
Introduction to Daegu Arboretum
Daegu Arboretum is a public arboretum located in Dalseo-gu, Daegu, and is the first in the country to restore a landfill into an ecological plant space.
