Improving Urban Aesthetics and Creating a Rest Area with a Flower Garden Covering Approximately 12,195㎡

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Jungma-dong, Gwangyang City announced on the 27th that it has created a flower garden covering approximately 12,195㎡ in urban vacant land (unused land) that detracts from the cityscape.

Since June this year, the city has planted cosmos, chrysanthemums, and liriope in four vacant lots where weeds and various wastes were left unattended to provide citizens with beautiful sights.

The large flower gardens were created on vacant lots at △ Madong 1059 (7,055㎡, near the shared parking lot behind Daekwang 1st Apartment) and △ Jungdong 1361-6 (4,620㎡, next to the National Health Insurance Service Gwangyang-Gurye branch), while small flower gardens were created at △ Jungdong San 18-1 (320㎡, next to Madong Ground Golf Course) and △ Jungdong 1696 (200㎡, next to Jin Ari Chae Apartment).

The city expects that the created flower gardens will not only improve the urban landscape but also be effective in reducing greenhouse gases, decreasing non-point source pollution during rainfall, and suppressing dust generation.

Park Soon-gi, head of Jungma-dong, said, “We will continue to plant seasonal flowers to improve the cityscape and provide citizens with urban rest areas.”
