Waryong Park (Korean: 와룡공원; Hanja: 臥龍公園) is a park in Myeongnyun-dong [ko], Jongno District, Seoul, South Korea. It was founded in 1984. It is adjacent to the mountain Bugaksan. The park is so named because it resembles a dragon (용/룡; yong/ryong) laying down.

The park was renovated in 2023, with safety railing and additional flora installed in the park.
