[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 15th that it will create a distinctive tree-lined street by preserving the shape of 100 ginkgo street trees along Hapcheon-eup downtown area (from the market to Hwanggang Heights section) and pruning them into a rounded shape.

Through this ginkgo tree shape maintenance pruning, a unique and distinctive tree-lined street will be created in Hapcheon-eup downtown area, providing a pleasant streetscape and new sights for local residents.

Ginkgo trees have excellent air-purifying abilities, grow well even in harsh environments, and are resistant to pests and diseases.

Street trees are the green spaces most easily accessible to local residents, and a pleasant streetscape is the best way to express naturalness and eco-friendliness.

A county official stated, “This project is expected to take 2 to 3 years to cultivate the ginkgo trees into a rounded shape, and considering the response of local residents, it will be expanded gradually over the years.”
