Seorak Sunrise Park Amphitheater - Sokcho, Korea - Outdoor Amphitheaters on Waymarking.com

This amphitheater is surrounding by more than thirty sculptures concentrated in the park, with the spectacular East Sea as a backdrop. Although this park is more noted as a place to see the sun rise, it also comes alive at night during the summer with concerts here on the weekends.

Seorak Sunrise Park situated along the ocean front on the south entrance to the city of Sokcho, offers both spectacular seascapes and walks through and expansive sculpture garden with beautiful landscaping.

Visitors arriving from the south on Route 7 along Korea's scenic eastern coast are greeted with this charming park, also known locally as Haemaji Park. A walk along the shore path can be romantic, and traditional diving women may be seen offshore. And there is the mermaid lovers statue on the rocks with its tales of romance. Early risers will be treated to spectacular sunrises.

Or, one can stroll through "Lover's Lane" among more than two dozen sculptures from the abstract to the powerful statements of the yearning for reunification of this divided nation. In the center of the park is an amphitheater for outdoor performances, including weekend performances during July and August.

Sokcho regards itself as the gateway to the legendary mountains of Seoraksan National Park, especially striking in the autumn with views from its peaks across to the north.
