Spirited Garden is home to hundreds of bonsai plants in a natural garden with the theme of oreum and water. The name changed from Bunjae Arpia in 2007 to commemorate the 15th anniversary after opening and to renew the garden as an international garden.

The garden came into the international spotlight as the beautiful space was created from the wastelands by a single farmer.
