[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kang Woo-kwon] The green space under the Milyang Bridge located next to Yeongnamru in Milyang City, Gyeongnam Province, has been reorganized, and combined with the nighttime bridge lighting, it is gaining popularity among citizens as a high-quality resting area.


According to Milyang City on the 12th, the reorganized lower part of the Milyang Bridge welcomes citizens with a different appearance during the day and night.


During the day, the melody of Milyang Arirang, expressed in bas-relief, symbolically represents the hometown of Milyang Arirang. On the other hand, from 6 p.m. to midnight, Yeongnamru reflected in the water is illuminated with colorful lights, creating a dreamy atmosphere as the colors reflect on the water.


The Yeongnamru under the Milyang Bridge faces the actual Yeongnamru across the river, resembling twins. Additionally, it is made with a fiber optic display, which harmonizes well with the surrounding environment, unlike traditional incandescent, fluorescent, or neon lights.


The city did not stop there; it demolished the existing deteriorated facilities and installed deck stands to create a space where citizens walking along the riverside can rest. Above the bridge, the clock tower and the Nature Protection Charter monument, which had been blocking the view of Yeongnamru, were refurbished to brightly illuminate the gateway entering the city.


Besides this project, the city plans to further reorganize the green space around Yeongnamru to provide photo zones and resting areas for citizens and tourists.



A Milyang City official stated, "We will continue to strive to create a more beautiful image of Milyang by transforming the Sammun-dong riverside into an urban garden where flowers and trees harmonize."
