[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, attended the groundbreaking ceremony of ‘Jungnang Mangwoo Space’ held at Manguri Park at 2 p.m. on the 27th.

‘Jungnang Mangwoo Space’ is a key facility aimed at developing Manguri Park into Seoul’s representative historical and cultural park. It is a two-story building with a total floor area of 1,247㎡ (377 pyeong).

This facility will include convenience amenities such as a caf?, restrooms, and parking lot, as well as an observatory, promotional and exhibition halls, and classrooms, to be used as a place for historical and cultural education.

Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi of Jungnang-gu said, “When Jungnang Mangwoo Space opens at the end of this year, residents will be able to visit Manguri Park more comfortably, and interest in the historical figures resting here will increase. We will expand resident convenience facilities and develop various experiential learning programs to nurture Manguri Park as Seoul’s representative historical and cultural park.”

Manguri Park is the resting place of about 60 pioneers who led modern and contemporary Korean history, including Han Yong-un, Oh Se-chang, Bang Jeong-hwan, Ji Seok-young, and Lee Jung-seop. Shedding its past image as a communal cemetery, it has established itself as a healing space with forests and walking trails for residents and as an outdoor educational site for history.
