[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Go Dallyoung] Jinan-gun (Governor Jeon Chunsung) announced that the cloud bridge construction project, which allows a view of the Unilam-Banilam Valley in Jucheon-myeon, one of the representative tourist destinations, began last week, raising expectations for it as a 1-night 2-day stay-type tourist spot.


This project involves installing a 220m-long, 72m-high Unilam-Banilam cloud bridge and a 600m-long trail, with a total investment of 4.65 billion KRW. The county plans to accelerate the project aiming for completion in December this year.


The Unilam-Banilam cloud bridge, installed crossing the valley on the mountainside, features a unique structure in Korea where the main cable is placed below the walkway, unlike cloud bridges in other regions. It is a suspension pedestrian bridge made by combining wing-shaped crossbeams, enhancing stability against wind.


The suspension pedestrian bridge’s floor is installed with open steel grating, allowing views of the massive rock formations and Yongso Pool in the valley, including Daebul Rock, designated as a forest cultural asset, making it a new tourist resource full of beautiful scenery and thrilling experiences expected to gain popularity.


Additionally, linked with the Unilam-Banilam auto camping site and geological trail opening in July, as well as nearby tourist spots such as Unjangsan and Gubongsan, it is expected to contribute to revitalizing the local economy and increasing tourists.



Governor Jeon Chunsung said, “This project, which allows appreciation of Unilam-Banilam with its thrilling excitement and pristine natural environment, is expected to become a representative tourist destination of Jinan-gun.” He added, “We will do our best to create a safe cloud bridge that maximizes the natural scenery and make Unilam-Banilam a 1-night 2-day stay-type tourist course.”
