There are some nice views, but I'm not sure which is the best park to visit. I went to the park south of the Ichon Station, not sure where that ranks among them.

What kind of airbnb were you in and how much was the rate?

Also, I just found out that the AREX tickets are more than half of with a KE boarding pass. That would have been nice if I had known that ahead of time
I went to the Banpo Bridge for the "rainbow fountain" show one evening. It was a little underwhelming but worth doing. The floating island buildings that are all lit up at night next to the bridge were really cool.

And I went to the Yeouido park by the river to see more cherry blossoms and the legislature building on my last day.

This is the Airbnb I stayed at. I think I paid something like $70/night.
