Jade Palace Golf Club

It took over a decade to build Jade Palace Golf Club, a Greg Norman and Harley Kruse-designed layout cut into the steep rocky hillsides above Chuncheon City. Korea’s largest engineering and construction company Hanwha led the work, which resulted in undulating Zoysia fairways and towering rock outcroppings lined by native grass with views of the Bukhan River framing the picturesque landscape. The signature hole at Jade Palace is the par-4 18th played to a wide green protected by a pond short of the green and a cliff of jagged rocks behind, with the stunning clubhouse just a few paces away. The clubhouse at Jade Palace is an architectural marvel and exudes luxury and tranquility in the quiet hills above a bustling city.
