DAY-OF PLAN
Know the sequence before you go.
Times from the operator are kept separate from Korea Era planning guidance.
01
Check for a memorial ceremony
The grounds are listed year-round and always open, but official remembrance events, security, maintenance and floral tributes take priority over casual visits.
02
Use the site as a solemn memorial
The 30-metre tower and renewed memorial chambers honour Daegu residents who died defending Korea. Keep voices low and follow every chamber, flower and ceremony boundary.
03
Separate the memorial from a park route
An open memorial ground does not establish a safe mountain trail, cable-car service or night return. Plan any Apsan activity independently.

Check national remembrance dates before travelling and yield immediately to ceremonies and families.
Keep tripods, group poses and food away from the central memorial axis, steps and flower areas.
If adding an Apsan walk, make a separate weather, route and daylight decision after the memorial visit.
Search “대구 앞산 충혼탑” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the exact entrance and return route.
