Dalseong Park is a park located in Jung District, Daegu, South Korea. The park includes Gwanpungnu Pavilion, a local history hall, a zoo, and some monuments.
The park is located inside the oldest earthen fortification in Korea, dating from about 261 C.E. (during the Three Kingdoms period). During the Sino-Japanese war in 1894–1895 the land was used as a Japanese military base. The park was created in 1905, and was renovated to its current form in 1965.
Animals at the zoo include Asian elephants, peacocks, Bengal tigers, a brown bear, llamas, pheasants, vultures, owls, monkeys, zebras, wolves, and a jaguar.
