"Fresh Invitation"
-
If you go to Seon-dong, Geumjeong-gu, Busan, you will be surprised at the other side of Busan. It is different from the endless sea, buildings filled with mountains, and thick horizons created by mountains and rivers found in the Nakdong River area. The reservoir filled with the mountains and the mist that spreads there makes me wonder if this is the Busan I used to know. Because it shows the atmosphere like the Mureungdowon where the gods live.
-
The word 'incitement' has two meanings. It was built as 'Seondol' because it was standing on stones like Seonbawi. The other one was changed to 'Seondong', and the other one was given because it was 'the place where the gods played'. The weather at that time, when it rained and the mountains became greener and the reservoir was covered with fog, may have played a part, but compared to the dynamic appearance of Busan, the quiet neighborhood atmosphere suits the place where the gods played. It is the first time that the place name and the actual atmosphere are so appropriate.
-
If you walk around the neighborhood of Seon-dong, which has such a calm atmosphere, you can find a building composed of five courtyards and three annexes that sit facing the reservoir. It is 'Seonyu Dowon'. It means the place where the peach blossoms bloomed, which the gods enjoyed, and if you walk around here, you can really meet the gods.
-
Each dong is divided into Dongcheon, Dongjae, and Seojae. Gosan Yun Seon-do, who longed for the life of a god, borrowed the name he gave to various objects and pavilions in exile. You can see the nearest nature from the lowest study. The naturally formed terraced seats to save the existing hill make the space more abundant, and the moss garden placed at the entrance of the building and the nature of the original reservoir are naturally connected. Thanks to it, it's inside, but it's as if you're enjoying a break from the outside.
-
Dongjae, the next tallest building, allows you to appreciate nature farther away than when viewed from the library. In the library, people walking on the promenade and the reservoir behind are the background, but here the natural line of the mountain and thick cloud cover become the background. Dongcheon, located at the highest point, offers a view of the entire neighborhood. If you turn your head, you can see the atmosphere of the surrounding village, and toward the reservoir, you can see the harmony between Dongjae and Seojae with the mountains. Here are stone gardens, moss gardens, modern benches and more. Five gardens are provided throughout, allowing users to enjoy their leisure to the fullest according to their taste.
-
None of them just skipped over. Speakers and furniture designed to fit the space, tea and desserts that go with it, and even staff attire. I even wondered if the Dowon, where the gods used to hang out, was actually like this. The exterior has a gable roof and a chimney, so the idea is deepened, and it harmonizes with the neighborhood of Seon-dong, which has a different atmosphere from Busan.
-
Now that it's hard to find leisure in the city, why not stop by the 'Seonyu Dowon', where the gods used to play, and enjoy yourself to your heart's content?
