[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam Province, announced on the 16th that it was selected as the best city/county in the province in the evaluation of the ‘2020 Urban Forest and Green Space Creation Project’ conducted by Gyeongnam Province.

This evaluation was conducted targeting 18 cities and counties in the province that worked to improve the quality of life for residents and create a pleasant green Gyeongnam.

Sancheong-gun was named the best institution based on the evaluation results of budget execution, performance management, and participation performance (3 fields, 12 items) of the 2020 Urban Forest and Green Space Creation Project.

Since 2018, the county has actively discovered idle lands such as leftover lands in each eup and myeon and riverside embankment paths to create green spaces.

They have also worked hard to create beautiful landscapes by planting flowers and trees such as cosmos, gujeolcho (Aster yomena), and flower moss.

During the flower-scarce summer, they planted the yellow-flowered honey tree, the Chinese scholar tree (Styphnolobium japonicum), which is a nectar source, contributing not only to creating a distinctive street landscape but also to increasing the income of beekeepers.

A county official stated, “Creating new green spaces is important, but maintaining the created spaces is even more important,” and added, “We will do our best to create and maintain farmland spaces and strive to discover public contest projects to make Sancheong pleasant and beautiful.”
