 Expo
Park |
In 1993, Daejeon was host to the 1993 International Exposition which
created quite a sensation locally as can be seen by the almost ever-present
image of Kkumdori, the Expo mascot. You can even find this character
emblazoned on several commemorative manhole covers downtown.
Now, the big excitement has died down, and the site has been transformed
into a science park. This is a good place to spend a day or two investigating
the pavilions that remain from Expo '93. The pavilions range from
fairly didactic displays to some really exciting sci-fi simulations.
There is also a neighboring theme park called Kkumdori Land. It offers
the usual mix of amusement rides, including a roller coaster. It is
a particularly good place to bring children. If you go on weekends
however, be prepared to wait in line to enter some of the better pavilions. |
