This hill side park has several memorials commemorating the involvement of the United Nations in the war on the Korean peninsula which is now under a truce agreement, but officially never ended with a treaty.

There is also a monument commemorating the war in Viet Nam. Further up the trail is a small Buddhist temple with hiking trails that lead beyond.
