Creating a 'Themed Landscape' on the Road to the World Cultural Heritage Site 'Uireung'

Seongbuk-gu Seokgwan-dong World Cultural Heritage Site 'Uireung' Front Low-Rise Residential Area 'Dolgoti Village' Promotes '2021 Seoul City Landscape Project' and Crime Prevention Design (CPTED Design) Applied 'Seokgwan-dong Dolgoti Safe Village Landscape Design Improvement Project'

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seongbuk-gu (Mayor Seungro Lee) is promoting the "Seokgwan-dong Dolgoti Safe Village Landscape Design Improvement Project," which applies Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) along with the "2021 Seoul City Landscape Project" to the low-rise residential area of Seokgwan-dong called "Dolgoti Village" in front of the World Cultural Heritage site "Uireung."

Dolgoti Village in Seokgwan-dong is a densely populated low-rise residential area adjacent to the World Cultural Heritage site "Uireung," the Korea National University of Arts Seokgwan Campus, and Cheonjangsan Mountain. Due to its somewhat aging public environment, there has been a need for landscape improvement and the application of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED).

The district has secured a total of 460 million KRW in city and district funds for this project and is currently conducting preliminary procedures such as design services, aiming to complete construction by next year.

On April 28, the first residents' briefing session was held at the Seokgwan-dong Community Center, and the design is being carried out reflecting residents' opinions. Starting in June, a second residents' briefing session and participation programs will be conducted to gather further feedback from residents in the target area.

Mayor Seungro Lee stated, "We will create a themed landscape on the road to the World Cultural Heritage site 'Uireung' and improve Dolgoti Village into a safer and more pleasant environment."
