Visitors Continue to Flock to Goheung Cheonmansongi Wild Chrysanthemum Private Garden

[Goheung=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Shim Jeong-woo] In the area including 734-1, Hohyeong-ri, Goheung-eup, Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Song Gwi-geun), a 3.2ha wild chrysanthemum garden has been created, which is now in full bloom, boasting a rich chrysanthemum fragrance and an open view with Jangsu Lake as the backdrop.

This place has especially established itself as a local healing garden, comforting tourists exhausted by COVID-19, as the number of visitors continues to increase.

The Jangsu Lake Wild Chrysanthemum Healing Garden was first created in 1997 by the Wild Chrysanthemum Agricultural Cooperative Corporation (CEO Baek Ui-young), and since 2013, Goheung-gun has been providing landscape conservation direct payments to the wild chrysanthemum cultivation area to cultivate beautiful local scenic spots.

Additionally, the wild chrysanthemum garden was registered as a private garden (Jeonnam No. 7) in 2018, and with support from Goheung-gun, visitor convenience facilities and additional planting of flowering plants such as hydrangeas have been added, developing it into a healing garden visited throughout all four seasons.

A Goheung-gun official stated, “We will continue to support the discovery of distinctive landscapes that can be linked with local festivals and rural tourism.”
