[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Muan-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kim San) announced on the 10th that it will invest a total project cost of over 200 million won this year to create flower paths along idle lands and walking trails on major roads in 9 towns and townships within the jurisdiction.


In February, the county finalized the project budget after receiving promotion plans including target sites, schedules, and required budgets from each town and township, and established a planting plan by selecting flower species suited to the characteristics of each area.


Each town and township plans to create beautiful flower paths throughout the four seasons with various flower species such as marigolds, pansies, zinnias, as well as cosmos, sunflowers, and chrysanthemums. To prepare for spring flower blooming, they will start sowing seeds and planting seedlings as early as March to April.


To ensure healthy growth of the flowers, they plan to create a pleasant growing environment through maintenance such as watering and covering soil, timely weed removal, and application of organic fertilizers.


In particular, following the opening of Chilsan Bridge connecting Muan and Yeonggwang, a large-scale buckwheat and rapeseed field will be created in the Haeje Doripo area to welcome tourists visiting Muan-gun.


The county plans to actively utilize personnel selected through public work and Hope Job projects for this flower path creation project, contributing to cost reduction and job creation for vulnerable employment groups at the same time.



Governor Kim San said, “Through this flower path creation project, the idle lands and walking trails in each town and township will be filled with various flower species, and we expect to deliver a message of hope to residents and tourists exhausted by COVID-19.”
