[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Park Woo-ryang) announced on the 4th that it signed a business agreement with Iksan Regional Land Management Office (Director Park Sung-jin) on December 30 last year to establish the Cheonsa Complex Center (tentative name).

The Iksan Regional Land Management Office will install a management office equipped with state-of-the-art equipment to safely manage the 1004 Bridge around Amtae Odo Port, as well as various convenience facilities such as a cafe, exhibition and promotion room, and an observatory.

The county plans to create Seomgil Station Rest Area, which sells local specialties and representative foods, and Cheonsa Park, which offers various attractions and entertainment.

A total project cost of 29 billion KRW will be invested in the Cheonsa Complex Center and Cheonsa Park, and upon completion by the end of 2022, it is expected to emerge as a new landmark where tourists can see, enjoy, and stay, as well as enhancing the safety of the 1004 Bridge.

Governor Park Woo-ryang said, “The 1004 Bridge has already established itself as a landmark in the southwest region and has greatly contributed to becoming a new untact tourism hotspot in the COVID-19 era, beyond just a bridge connecting islands, including the Purple Sea Garden in the central region, the 1004 Islands Museum Park, and the Bridge of Infinity,” adding, “We will continue our efforts to make the 1004 Bridge a world-class tourist attraction and collaborate with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport for this purpose.”
