About this audio guide
This guide to Samnak Ecological Park in Busan follows a protected Nakdong River wetland where workers plant cosmos in autumn and barley in winter, not for beauty but to feed migrating ducks, geese and swans travelling between Siberia and points south. It traces how the fields shift with the seasons, from spring's yellow rapeseed bloom, grown here for generations before it became a photo backdrop, to summer's lotus ponds and riverside campsites crowded with families. Walk the river path in April to see the crop that still feeds both the birds and the crowd.
