Daejeon is recognized as the largest science center in South Korea. It is in this city where we can discover the famous Expo Park. Daejeon Expo Science Park is a theme park established following the closing of the Daejeon Expo in 1993. During that year, an international exposition was conducted at Daejeon, wherein some landmarks such as Expo Bridge and Hanbit Tower were built and then renovated the areas into an Expo Science Park. The Expo Park is a science park in Yuseong-gu Daejeon that consists of an amusement park, gardens, and observation tower. The park comprises various facilities like the Hanbit Tower, Daejeon Expo Memorial Hall, World Expo Memorial Museum, and Daejeon Traffic Culture Institute. They created this Science Park to utilize the areas and facilities as a science education space for everyone.
