Created in 1991, Wando Arboretum is the only warm temperate forest in Korea where only 15% of the landscape is considered a warm temperate region. Wando Arboretum is home to a broadleaf evergreen tree forest that has high medicinal value, covers an area of 200 ㏊ (2,000,000㎡), and is home to 709 species of rare warm temperate plants such as goodyera, calanthe striata, and cephalanthera falcata.

There are 30 special gardens for each different plant life, a green house, an observation path, and an observatory. At the observatory, visitors can enjoy the view of Dadohaehaesang National Park and Namdo. The observatory offers an opportunity to educate visitors on nature and the  environment and allows them to take a rest during their visit.
